Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny is unconscious in hospital after suffering from suspected poisoning.

Mr Navalny fell ill during a flight heading to Moscow from Tomsk forcing the plane to an emergency landing in Omsk, a city in West-Central Russia. His spokeswoman, Kira Yarmysh says something had been mixed into his tea, and that it was the only thing he took since morning.

Mr Navalny, 44, is a staunch critic of President Vladmir Putin. He is on a ventilator and in a coma. Doctors were initially ready to share any information but later claimed toxicology tests had been delayed.

In 2017, Mr Navalny suffered a serious chemical burn to his right eye after he was assaulted with antiseptic dye.

He came to prominence through his blog hosted by LiveJournal but later switched to YouTube where he has 3.79 million subscribers and Twitter where he has more more than 2.1 million followers.

He publishes videos and documents about corruption by Russian state officials, organises political demonstrations and seeks political office.
