> Novaya Gazeta, one of Russia’s most fearless newspapers, says it will shut down after more than three decades of challenging the Kremlin. The paper says six colleagues were killed over the years, including Anna Politkovskaya, shot dead in Moscow in 2006. Former editor Dmitry Muratov won the Nobel Peace Prize, but it could not shield the newspaper.
