Evidence Quote

the Azarbaijani authorities arrested several journalists from Sputnik and some other Russians and then these individuals were photographed looking like much the worse for wear like they'd clearly been given the business in in government custody. And to do that and then highlight it uh very publicly is a very open effort at humiliating Russia
