A Moscow court issued an arrest warrant on August 26 for Aleksandra Frolova, a self-exiled member of late opposition politician Aleksei Navalny's team. Three days earlier, the same court issued a warrant for Nina Volokhonskaya, a self-exiled producer at the Navalny LIVE YouTube channel. In mid-August, Frolova and Volokhonskaya were added to Russia's wanted list for allegedly taking part in the activities of an extremist group.
