Reuters reported the information.

The FSB said the latest journalists under investigation are from France 24 and Switzerland’s CH Media.

The charges follow Ukraine's surprise attack in August, when it seized territory around Sudzha, marking the first Ukrainian capture of Russian land since the war began.

According to Russian law, illegal border crossings can result in up to five years in prison.
