Nieuws uit het buitenland is iets anders dan nieuws over het buitenland. Daarom zijn we blij ons nieuwe partnerschap met 360 magazine aan te kondigen...
360 magazine is een maandelijkse publicatie die verhalen uit de internationale media selecteert, interpreteert en vertaalt voor een Nederlandstalig publiek.
Elke maand, of gerelateerd aan nieuwswaardige gebeurtenissen, zullen één of meerdere artikelen van Bellingcat te lezen zijn in 360 magazine, zoals deze recente verhalen: 360magazine.nl/frontex-riskee…
Заявление Bellingcat о судебном решении Окружного суда Амстердама:
Bellingcat отмечает, что Окружной суд Амстердама вынес судебное обеспечительное решение против петербургского информационного агентства РИА ФАН, которое не явилось на судебное заседание. bellingcat.com/riafan_ru/
Решение считает пять статей, опубликованных РИА ФАН в июле и августе 2020 года, некорректными и незаконными.
В статьях ложно утверждалось, что исследователь Bellingcat Питер ван Гюйс (чье имя РИА ФАН неправильно писало как “Питер ван Хьюс”) и другие журналисты Bellingcat отправляли сообщения с угрозами сотрудникам РИА ФАН, а также предлагали им взятку.
Bellingcat Statement on Injunctive Decision of Amsterdam District Court -
Bellingcat notes that the Amsterdam District Court has issued an injunctive decision against the St. Petersburg-based news agency RIA FAN, which failed to appear for the Court hearing.
The decision deems five articles published by RIA FAN in July and August 2020 incorrect and unlawful.
The articles falsely claimed Bellingcat investigator Pieter van Huis and other Bellingcat journalists had sent threatening messages to RIA FAN employees as well as offering to bribe them.
@IwriteOK Williams ex-partner has alleged to the FBI that she stole Nancy Pelosi’s laptop during the Capitol riot, something she denies.
While Williams has not been charged with that offence, she is facing multiple charges including aiding/abetting others to “embezzle, steal, purloin.”
@IwriteOK Yet several days after Williams was charged in mid-January, an antifascist activist reached out to Bellingcat with a video they believed showed her pledging allegiance to Adolf Hitler.
Threatened by deplatforming, Britain's far-right influencers are increasingly "funneling" their followers to lesser-known and lower moderation social media networks, where they can more easily turn clicks into cash.
So suggests a database compiled by Bellingcat over three months, which examined 29 far-right figures from the UK across 19 platforms.
As one researcher told us, patchy online moderation sustains an "economy of hate" — allowing far-right views to survive and to thrive.
We found posts promoting racist conspiracy theories. Some were on smaller platforms with known far-right leanings; others were on mainstream platforms which many of us use every day.
And that's the idea. The latter bring new followers, who are then funnelled to the former.
After the publication of the report by @bellingcat, @the_ins_ru & @spiegel showing FSB’s poison squad tailed @vkaramurza before both of his poisonings, he has been subject of renewed tailing - this time by a car we linked to the FSB.
Yesterday, @vkaramurza reported he was tailed throughout Moscow by the same car. Following his decision to switch to public transport, he noticed the same people trailing on the metro as well. He sent us a photo of the car that tailed him.
We tried to search for the car number plate in a number of online sources that almost always return car ownership and registration data. Nothing came back for this car... a very unusual occurrence.
Bellingcat and its investigative partners have established that Russian politician, Vladimir Kara Murza, was followed by a specialist FSB team prior to his suspected poisonings in 2015 and 2017. bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-eu…
Members of the same FSB team, some of whom have medical and chemical weapons backgrounds, tailed Alexey Navalny before he was poisoned with a Novichok substance in August 2020.
Kara-Murza is a well-known Russian politician, film-maker and an outspoken critic of Russian president Vladimir Putin. The circumstances around his suspected poisonings have long remained a mystery.
