MOSCOW - The press secretary of jailed Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny said on the X social media platform on Friday that she was unable to confirm his death, which was reported by the country's prison service earlier.
Kira Yarmysh said that Navalny's lawyer was traveling to the site of the prison where he had been serving his sentence.
