Kyiv says Ukrainian reporter Victoria Roshchyna died in Russian detention

"An award-winning Ukrainian journalist who wrote firsthand accounts of life in Russian-occupied Ukraine has died in detention in Russia.
Victoria Roshchyna, who was 27, worked freelance for Ukrainian media outlets Ukrainska Pravda and Hromadske Radio, as well as for US-funded Radio Liberty. She went missing in August last year after she travelled to Russian-occupied parts of Ukraine on a reporting trip.
Russia’s Ministry of Defence acknowledged in a letter to her father in May that she was in Russian custody." AJ
