Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has been seen for the first time since his three-week hunger strike in prison.

He appeared in court via video link in an unsuccessful appeal to overturn his conviction for defaming a World War II veteran.

Mr Navalny’s lawyers have also revealed greater details about his life in prison, saying he had to share a nine-square-metre cell with two other men. Proceedings are underway to label his anti-corruption foundation as extremist – which his team said would make it impossible to operate in Russia.
