Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny has been rushed to the hospital in Omsk. An emergency landing was made by the plane he was on, which was on a flight from Tomsk to Moscow. This was announced by Navalny's press secretary Kira Yarmysh on her Twitter page.

She noted that the political figure has been hospitalized with signs of toxic poisoning. He is currently in the hospital's intensive care unit, unconscious, as reported by the TASS agency.
