Global News published this video item, entitled “Navalny’s team says traces of Novichok nerve agent found in his hotel room” – below is their description.
The nerve agent allegedly used to poison Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny was detected on an empty water bottle from his hotel room in the Siberian city of Tomsk, suggesting he was poisoned there and not at the airport as previously thought, his team said on Thursday. Navalny fell violently ill on a domestic flight in Russia last month and was subsequently airlifted to Berlin for treatment. Germany says he was poisoned by a Novichok nerve agent. Russia says it has not yet seen any evidence that he was poisoned. A video posted by aides on Navalny’s Instagram account showed members of his team searching the room he had just left in the Xander Hotel in Tomsk on Aug. 20, an hour after they learned he had fallen sick in suspicious circumstances. It showed his team bagging several empty bottles of “Holy Spring” mineral water, among other items while wearing protective gloves. “Two weeks later, a German laboratory found traces of Novichok precisely on the bottle of water from the Tomsk hotel room,” the post said.
