The Russian neo-Nazi group National Socialism/White Power (NS/WP) has claimed responsibility for the destruction of a memorial plaque honoring Anna Politkovskaya, the Novaya Gazeta journalist who was assassinated in 2006, Novaya Gazeta Europe reported on Monday.

In a post published in a closed NS/WP Telegram channel on January 18, the group said that “certain enterprising individuals” had destroyed the plaque on the apartment building where Politkovskaya was killed. The post described the act as a “tribute” from NS/WP to its “glorious predecessors” from the neo-Nazi group BORN (the Combat Organization of Russian Nationalists).
