This book tells us about how Russia fought against journalists and the freedom of speech during the occupation of Crimea and thereafter. Yuriy Lukanov, a journalist who covered these events, describes not only his own impressions, but also presents many interviews he conducted with journalists who worked in Crimea at that time.

The book shows how Russia systematically fought against free press and free reporting—from simple restriction of access to information to physical beatings and criminal prosecution of journalists.

The volume is illustrated with photos by the author and his colleagues.

With a foreword by Taras Kuzio.
