Chuck Schumer Calls on DHS to Deploy Drone 'Detection Systems' in New York, New JerseyA journalist who once worked as a freelance reporter for the U.S. government-funded Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty was convicted Tuesday by a court in far eastern Russia of cooperating with a foreign organization and sentenced to four years in prison. Nika Novak, 24, was found guilty after a closed trial in the Zabaikalsky Regional Court in the city of Chita of cooperating with a representative of a foreign media outlet and being paid to prepare “false materials” to discredit the Russian military and government agencies. The court said Novak’s actions were aimed at damaging and destabilizing Russia. The human rights organization Memorial has described Novak as a political prisoner. It’s not clear why Novak was arrested, but she previously did freelance work for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, according to Siberia Realities, which is part of RFE/RL. She also was the editor-in-chief of Zab.ru, a news site in Chita, a city in eastern Russia that is closer to Japan than Moscow. “We condemn today’s unjust conviction and sentencing of RFE/RL journalist Nika Novak in Russia. These politically motivated charges are intended to silence individual reporters and cause a chilling effect. We call for Nika’s immediate release to her family," RFE/RL President and CEO Stephen Capus said in a comment to The Associated Press. Novak was arrested in Moscow in December 2023 and sent more than 6,000 kilometers (3,728 miles) east to Chita for her trial. Russia has used foreign agent laws to crack down on freedom of speech and independent media, including RFE/RL. RFE/RL was told by Russian authorities in 2017 to register as a foreign agent, but it has challenged Moscow’s use of foreign agent laws in the European Court of Human Rights. The organization has been fined millions of dollars by Russi and was outlawed in the country in February. , a Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty journalist with U.S citizenship was convicted in July of spreading false information about the Russian military and was later released as part of a prisoner swap deal with the West. According to OVD-Info, one of Russia’s leading rights groups that tracks political arrests, more than 1,000 people have been charged in related to speaking or acting out against the war in Ukraine. But Memorial noted that Novak previously appeared to have made comments on her social media pages that supported the war. In a post published on her behalf Tuesday on the social media platform Telegram, Novak described being taken to Chita from Moscow’s notorious Lefortovo Prison on a flight that lasted about seven hours. She also said she is not allowed to contact her mother, who is listed as a witness in the case, and suggested her meetings and conversations were wiretapped. “I feel some pressure, but I try not to lose heart,” she wrote in the post.

Global Solar Fuel Market To Reach $17.52 Billion By 2028 With A Growth Rate Of 7.6%WASHINGTON — Veterans in northern Nevada will have an “elevated” healthcare experience, according to U.S. Sen. Jacky Rosen. Rosen and fellow Nevada Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto introduced legislation to authorize the construction of a new veterans hospital in Reno through the Veterans Affairs Major Medical Facility Authorization Act that was passed in the Senate and was signed by President Joe Biden on Nov. 27. Sen. Jacky Rosen The Reno VA Medical Center serves veterans from Sacramento to Salt Lake City. The new state-of-the-art facility is expected to serve 200,000 veterans, Rosen said. “We have veterans that come from all over.” Rosen said the hospital will be constructed on 40 to 50 acres, and a site is being considered near the University of Nevada, Reno, which could benefit both students and veterans. Rosen told the Elko Daily Free Press about the benefits of the new Reno VA hospital and ongoing efforts to support veterans following their discharge from active service. Speaking about the hospital, Rosen said it would “elevate healthcare overall,” noting programs and training in social work, physical therapy and nursing based out of UNR and Truckee Meadows Community Colleges could benefit from the new VA hospital in the area. Delivering “state-of-the-art healthcare” to servicemen and women is a priority, Rosen said. “Our veterans signed on the dotted line to take an oath to the Constitution to protect and defend us regardless of what happens to them,” she explained. “It’s our sacred responsibility to make sure that we take care of them when they come home.” The current Reno VA hospital required an upgrade that would “cost so much,” but the new bill would provide the funding to construct a new facility, Rosen said. The time frame for its opening is “over the next few years,” she said. Rosen explained the larger hospital with additional staff and new technology would become more “efficient” for veterans, along with increasing jobs and boosting the economy in Reno. “Take radiology, for example,” she said. “X-rays that used to take a half-hour [to process] maybe now take 10 minutes. You get more patients through. If you’re a bigger hospital, higher technology and a bigger workforce, you can take care of more people. “I hope it will give us more access to care in every single way and reduce those wait times,” Rosen added. Rosen said she is a member of a six-person delegation that meets regularly to discuss issues pertaining to Nevada veterans, including Cortez Masto and U.S. Rep. Mark Amodei, a Nevada Republican. As a member of the Services Committee, Rosen said discussions have been aimed at helping veterans transition from service to civilian life. It is “important that we follow veterans so that they can continue to get their VA benefits when they need them, even if they are years later.” Tracking veterans years after their discharge is imperative to help with education, jobs, housing and medical services, she added. “Whatever it is, we’re constantly working on trying to improve the transition process from active-duty military to veteran,” Rosen explained. “What skills do you have as active-duty military [serviceman or servicewoman] to veteran that resonates and transfers into the workforce in the civilian sector?” Rosen’s support for veterans has been ongoing as senator. She recently led colleagues in a bipartisan letter urging the Biden Administration to identify and amend military records of hundreds of women veterans who deployed alongside Special Operations Forces in Afghanistan and Iraq to ensure they accurately reflect their combat service. Rosen also secured authorization for Nevada’s first-ever Veteran Business Outreach Center. Last year, she helped pass the bipartisan PACT Act to extend VA benefits and health care to all veterans suffering from illnesses as a result of exposure to burn pits and other toxins during their service overseas. In the letter, Rosen and her colleagues point out the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023, which she helped pass, authorized $60 million for NARA, the National Archives and Records Administration, to address the records backlog by digitizing service records to improve response times for requests from veterans for their military service records. Due to staffing shortages during the pandemic, NARA staff struggled to respond to veterans’ requests for documents and the backlog climbed to 600,000. Rosen was part of a bipartisan delegation that sought answers from NARA about a backlog of requests for veterans’ service records from those seeking government benefits, medical treatment, unemployment assistance and emergency housing.
