Navalny spoke out repeatedly against Russian President Vladimir Putin and his invasion of Ukraine. For more than a decade, Navalny led anti-corruption investigations, political protests, and ran for office. 

He was jailed more than 10 times since 2011 and, until August 4, 2023, was serving prison terms of nine years and 2 1/2 years on a variety of charges, including embezzlement. 

Russian opposition politician Aleksei Navalny has died while in prison, according to a statement from the local department of the Federal Penitentiary Service. 

The 47-year-old Kremlin critic had been serving his sentence in the IK-3 prison, known as "Polar Wolf", above the Arctic Circle. The strict-regime prison is a place where a water cannon is an instrument of torture.  https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-navalny-arctic-polar-wolf-prison/32749723.html
