An ambulance team was already waiting for Navalny on the runway. While the plane was descending, Alexei was already unconscious. He was taken on a stretcher to one of the Omsk hospitals.

Now the 44-year-old oppositionist is in toxic intensive care. According to the first assumptions of doctors, he was poisoned. Navalny’s condition is assessed as grave. The man was hooked up to a ventilator.

According to Navalny’s spokesman, in the morning he drank only tea. According to doctors, this may well mean that something was mixed into his drink.
