Alexey Navalny Says Putin Wants Him Dead

As Russia’s main opposition leader, Alexey Navalny knows what it’s like to be a Kremlin target. Navalny nearly died in August on a flight to Moscow after he was poisoned with a nerve agent at a hotel the night before boarding the plane. Now a new investigation by Bellingcat, CNN and others reveals an undercover squad working for Russia’s federal security service had tracked Navalny for years.
