Bulgarian journalist Christo Grozev, working for Bellingcat, has been declared a wanted man in Russia, the website of the Russian Interior Ministry showed.

In July, the FSB announced on the air of "Russia-24" TV channel that Grozev participated in an attempt to hijack Su-24, Su-34 and Tu-22 M3 jets by giving money at the behest of Kyiv to Russian pilots.

Grozev has won numerous journalism awards for investigations into crimes committed by Russian services and denies the allegations. He has been working for the Belgian site Bellingcat since 2015. In an interview with AFP the journalist said that the site's reports were "the Kremlin's worst nightmare."
