Russian Opposition Leader Alexei Navalny Dies in Prison

Alexei Navalny, Russia's prominent opposition leader, has died in a prison inside the Arctic Circle, with the prison service stating that he felt unwell after a walk and subsequently lost consciousness. Navalny, a vocal critic of President Vladimir Putin, was serving a 19-year jail term on widely considered politically motivated charges. His death has prompted international condemnation, with many holding Russian authorities responsible. Navalny's return to Russia in January 2021 followed a poisoning with a Novichok nerve agent in August 2020, after which he was immediately taken into custody and barred from challenging Putin in the 2018 presidential election.
