Russia arrests Japanese journalist on spying charges
The Hokkaido Shimbun journalist is accused of collecting information on Moscow's defence capabilities for Tokyo.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets centre on Russia detaining a Japanese journalist on suspicion of spying, and both extracts frame the case as alleged espionage. Sky News says the journalist was arrested and accused of gathering information on defence capabilities, while the South China Morning Post is the only one to mention statements from the FSB and Russia’s foreign ministry, which it quotes as saying Tokyo was using correspondents to spy.
