Russian Opposition leader Alexei Navalny poisoned by nerve agent Novichok: Germany

The Hindu  

Tests carried out on Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny showed that he was poisoned by a Novichok chemical nerve agent, the German government said on September 2, demanding explanations from Moscow. “It is a shocking event that Alexei Navalny has become the victim of an attack with a chemical nerve agent in Russia,” said government spokesman Steffen Seibert in a statement. The Russian government is urgently requested to provide clarifications over the incident.” Tests carried out by the German Army in consultation with the Charite hospital in Berlin, where Mr. Navalny is being treated, had found “unequivocal evidence of a chemical nerve agent from the Novichok family,” Mr. Seibert said. In 2018, the Kremlin was accused of being behind the attempted murder of ex-double agent Sergei Skripal in Salisbury, southwest England, using a Novichok nerve agent.
