Ukrainian pilot Nadiya Savchenko has been sentenced to 22 years in jail after being convicted of charges relating to the deaths of two Russian journalists.<\/p>\n

She was accused of directing the artillery fire in eastern Ukraine in which the two journalists died in June 2014.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said she was driven by “political hatred”.<\/p>\n

She denied all the charges and her case has become internationally notorious.<\/p>\n

Western politicians have been among those calling for her release, echoing her lawyers’ descriptions of the process as a show trial and a farce.<\/p>\n

As Savchenko was finally pronounced guilty, following the judge’s two-day reading of the verdict, she disrupted proceedings by singing a Ukrainian national song.
