"The embassy knows that a Russian citizen, editor-in-chief of Sputnik Meуdia E.E. Cherysheva has been released. We are currently looking into the details and trying to get in touch with her," the embassy said in a statement.
The Estonian intelligence services detained Cherysheva on Wednesday, accusing her of violating international sanctions. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova slammed the accusations as bordering on absurdity.
