In Russia, the opposition movement has seen a surge of support for a protester who was recently jailed for his involvement in demonstrations supporting opposition leader Alexei Navalny.
The jailed protester, whose identity has not been disclosed, has become a symbol of the ongoing struggle for political freedom in Russia. Navalny, a prominent critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, was arrested earlier this year upon his return to Russia from Germany, where he had been recovering from a poisoning attack.
