Activists restored the plaque on Politkovskaya's house.

The 14th temporary plaque has been installed on the building where Novaya Gazeta journalist Anna Politkovskaya lived and was murdered.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," today, for the 14th time, unknown individuals destroyed the plaque on the Moscow building where Novaya Gazeta journalist Anna Politkovskaya lived and was murdered. Activists restored the latest temporary plaque on the evening of February 13.

On the evening of February 14, activists restored a plaque commemorating journalist Anna Politkovskaya on a building on Lesnaya Street in Moscow, Slovo Zashchitetsi reported.

"We come here almost every month. Every day, someone tears down the plaque, and we restore it," said Daria Bunkova. She said they are restoring the plaque because "It's important, it's a memorial."

Another activist said this is the 13th or 14th time they've installed the plaque. According to her, they are doing this so that society will remember the crime against the journalist and that this should not happen.

As can be seen in the video, the plaque repeats the text that was on the memorial plaque.

A stenciled inscription also remains on the wall near the entrance, copying the text from the original plaque, according to the photographs attached to the publication.

On January 18, a memorial plaque bearing Anna Politkovskaya's name was destroyed for the first time in a building on Lesnaya Street. Activists from the Civil Initiative group installed a temporary plaque to replace the one destroyed, but on January 19, it too was destroyed. Representatives of a far-right organization designated as terrorist claimed involvement in the destruction of the first plaque. The man who smashed a memorial plaque was fined 1,000 rubles, although he denied any wrongdoing, claiming the plaque "fell and broke on its own."

Anna Politkovskaya's last interview was given to a "Caucasian Knot" correspondent an hour and a half before her death. In this interview, the journalist commented on Ramzan Kadyrov's career prospects.

In 2025, on the 19th anniversary of Anna Politkovskaya's murder, residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg brought flowers to her grave, the Novaya Gazeta office, and the memorial to the victims of repression. Some of those convicted in the case of her murder have already been released, but the person who ordered it has not yet been convicted, Politkovskaya's colleagues recalled.

On the fifth anniversary of Politkovskaya's murder, journalists and human rights activists at a rally in Tbilisi highlighted her contribution to the fight for freedom of speech, demanding that those who ordered her murder be identified.

"Caucasian Knot" publishes materials dedicated to Politkovskaya on the thematic page "Politkovskaya and Estemirova", which contains materials and about Anna's friend, journalist and human rights activist Natalia Estemirova, who was killed in 2009 and also worked on the problems of the residents of Chechnya.
