Russia court sentences 72-year-old American to nearly 7 years for fighting in Ukraine

A Russian court sentenced 72-year-old US citizen Stephen Hubbard to nearly seven years in prison on charges of fighting as a mercenary for Ukraine, following a trial largely held behind closed doors. This sentencing comes amid a string of recent detentions of Westerners in Russia, including another American who was handed a longer prison term for violence against prison staff.
