Anniversary of the Assassination Attempt on Russian Political Activist
Two years have passed since Russian security agents attempted a biological assassination on Alexei Navalny, one of the most prominent anti-Putin activists in Russia. Despite being aware of his grim fate, he returned to his country after the failed biological assassination attempt and was quickly arrested, with multiple prison sentences announced against him. Now held in solitary confinement, he remains in contact with the world through his network of social activists. On the anniversary of the failed assassination attempt by Russian security forces, various governments have called for his release.
