Undercover members of Russian s Federal Security Service (FSB) were involved in the poisoning of opposition figure Alexei Navalny, a new investigation has found.
Kremlin critic Navalny fell ill on a flight from Tomsk to Moscow on August 20. He was later transferred to a clinic in Berlin for treatment.
In September, the German government said there was unequivocal proof of a chemical nerve agent from the Novichok group in his body.
Russia has repeatedly denied any responsibility for Navalny s poisoning, stating that no Novichok agent was found in his body when he was treated in Omsk. Moscow has also said that any accusations against them are part of a wider Western campaign.
