1/4 The lawyer says that an ambulance was called for Alexey @navalny on the night of Friday to Saturday because of an acute stomach pain. No one is treating him and they are not even telling him the diagnosis. He has lost 8 kilos(!) in the last 15 days in the punishment cell.

It is remarkable how little money is invested into countering Putin’s propaganda among the Russian audience, especially given that a change in government would not only end the war but solve many other problems. Consider donating to @navalny ( https://t.co/q5K6KIhGNi) and @tvrain
Charities and wealthy Russians who want to take a stand against Vladimir Putin should offer their financial support

⚡️⚡️⚡️ As of today Navalny is no longer allowed to communicate confidentially with his lawyers or family. All incoming and outgoing documents will be subject to a three-day censorship check. This could effectively mean no communication at all.
1/8 They brought me out of my cell to the commission, where the administration solemnly announced: «It has been established that you continue your criminal activity, you are committing crimes directly from the prison facilities.
