| The three laureates are Memorial, a rights group in Russia; the Center for Civil Liberties in Ukraine; and Ales Bialiatski, an activist jailed in Belarus.
The Nobel Peace Prize announcement comes as war rages in Europe.
The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded on Friday to human rights advocates in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus who have become symbols of resistance and accountability during the largest ground war in Europe since World War II, set off by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
The laureates — Memorial, a Russian organization; the Center for Civil Liberties in Ukraine; and Ales Bialiatski, a jailed Belarusian activist — have emerged as some of the starkest challengers to the widespread misinformation and harmful myths disseminated by authoritarian leaders.
