Imprisoned Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has told supporters not to lose the will to resist, after his jail term was extended to 19 years.

Mr Navalny was found guilty of founding and funding an extremist organisation. He denies the charges.

He was already serving a nine-year term for parole violations, fraud and contempt of court. The charges are widely viewed as politically motivated.

The trial was held in a remote penal colony, where he has been since 2021.

The Kremlin's most vocal critic will serve his time in a "special regime colony", which Russian state prosecutors had been calling for.
