The detained priest Mikhnov-Vaitenko, who wanted to hold a memorial service for Navalny, was diagnosed with an ischemic stroke
Priest Grigory Mikhnov-Vaitenko, who was detained after he decided to hold a memorial service for Alexei Navalny, was given a preliminary diagnosis of ischemic stroke. His wife Natalia Sivokhina told Kholod about this. According to her, on February 19, the priest can be transferred to a regular ward while he feels “average.” “For some time, a section of the brain was left without blood circulation. You can imagine the consequences,” said Sivokhina.
