The U.S. State Department issued a travel advisory on Tuesday warning that Moscow "may single out and detain U.S. citizens in Russia" and repeating earlier warnings for Americans not to travel to the country. The warning was "due to the unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine by Russian military forces" as well as the potential for harassment of U.S. citizens by Russian authorities, the travel advisory said, repeating calls for Americans traveling or living in Russia to leave "immediately."
Russia has sentenced two former US Marines to prison, and has arrested two-time Olympic gold medalist and WNBA Champion/All-Star Brittney Griner of the Phoenix Mercury.
