This is the best summary I could come up with:
Alexei Navalny is “doing well,” his spokeswoman Kira Yarmysh said on Monday, saying that the Russian opposition figure had been located in a penal colony in Russia’s far north, in the Yamalo-Nenets region of western Siberia.
He is now in IK-3 settlement of Kharp in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District," Yarmysh wrote on social media, using alternative spellings for Navalny and the region’s names.
Navalny’s whereabouts had been unknown since early December, with friends and family unable to reach him, and court appointments in the various cases against him had been delayed without authorities providing reasons why.
Navalny was previously being held in the IK-6 prison facility, a comparatively short distance southeast of Moscow.
In 2020 he survived what German doctors said was a case of attempted poisoning using a Soviet-era nerve agent, Novichok.
But Russian officials then warned that his convalescence in Germany violated the terms of his probation for a prior conviction.
