Putin's critic Alexia Navalny is dead
Jailed Russian opposition politician Alexei Navalny has died, Russian media report, citing the prison service.
Some sources suggest he was taking a walk and suddenly fell to the ground. Very mysterious. Guess they ran out of windows.
This is so sad for the world. RIP
There will be others, this was highly unlikely to not happen
Party elders were alarmed by his push for a more nationalist message. Defiantly, he recorded a pro-gun rights video in which he compared people from Russia’s mostly Muslim North Caucasus to “cockroaches” and mimicked shooting one with a pistol.
Racist fuck.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Russia's most significant opposition leader for the past decade, Alexei Navalny, has died in prison inside the Arctic Circle, the prison service said.
Seen as President Vladimir Putin's most vociferous critic, Navalny was serving a 19-year jail term for offences widely considered politically motivated.
He was moved to an Arctic penal colony, considered one of the toughest jails, late last year.
The prison service in the Yamalo-Nenets district said he had "felt unwell" after a walk on Friday.
The causes of his death were being established, Tass news agency reported.
This breaking news story is being updated and more details will be published shortly.
