The U.S. on Thursday sanctioned four Russians they say were involved in the 2020 poisoning of Alexey Navalny, the country's most well-known opposition leader.

The US Treasury Department identified the sanctioned operatives as Alexey Alexandrovich Alexandrov, Konstantin Kudryavtsev, Ivan Vladimirovich Osipov and Vladimir Alexandrovich Panyaev. Three of the four have worked with a specialized laboratory run by the Russian security service known as the FSB Criminalistics Institute. All four have previously been targeted by U.S. sanctions for acting on behalf of the FSB.
