Novaya Gazeta, an independent newspaper critical of the Kremlin, has shut down its Moscow office after three decades. The closure came as a result of mounting government pressure and sustained restrictions on independent media. Journalists mourned the loss of their office while recalling the legacy of their investigative work. Some staff members have relocated abroad and continue reporting under a new publication called Novaya Gazeta Europe.
