This number got dead at 16:01 on 7 October 2006. Today it’s connected again.

This is the phone number of Anna Politkovskaya.

When she was alive, this telephone number was never silent. Hundreds of people shared information with her. She got threats through this number. It was the last hope for some people. Anya was asked for help by victims of arbitrary treatment in the army, by victims of corruption and violence. She heard the words of admiration as well as insults on this phone. Presidents, ambassadors and ordinary people used this number. And ordinary people were given much more attention and time.

We have connected this number again.

It will be working till 7 October inclusive (from 12:00 till 18:00 of Moscow time) which is the date of her death.

Call everyone who has already called and who was going to, but didn’t have time. Speak about yourself, give opinion about the country and of course, please, speak about Anna.

“Anya’s number” is the special number of the Novaya which is planned to be issued 8 October.
