Finland halts deportation of Russian anti-war family

Finland has halted the deportation of Russian mother and son Olga and Nikita Belov, who faced jail and torture for opposing the Ukraine invasion. An administrative court quashed the rejection of their asylum case, citing new evidence, and referred it back for fresh consideration. The family fled Russia in 2022 after attracting authorities' attention for their pro-Ukrainian activism.
