Brittney Griner has been transferred to a Russian penal colony, her lawyers said on Wednesday.
Griner left her cell in Moscow on Friday, November 4. Her lawyers said they do not know exactly where she currently is or which facility she is to be transferred to, but will be notified when she reaches her destination.
