German police are investigating the suspected poisoning of two Russian journalists

Synopsis

The German police investigate the suspected poisoning of two Russian journalists who attended a conference in Berlin. The women received treatment at the Charity Hospital after experiencing symptoms indicative of poisoning. One journalist, Natalia Arno, director of the Free Russia Foundation, reported feeling unwell and later traveled to Prague before returning to the U.S. The other journalist confirmed her treatment at the Charity Hospital but stated it was unrelated to the conference organized by Kremlin critic Mikhail Khodorkovsky. This incident raises concerns, as previous poison attacks have targeted opponents of President Vladimir Putin, highlighting the dangers faced by Russian dissidents.
