The Russian state has been implicated in using rare toxins to eliminate opponents, with speculation around Alexei Navalny’s death involving a toxin potentially derived from an Ecuadorian dart frog. Dr. Eric Franssen highlighted that such poisons are hard to detect in routine hospital screenings, suggesting a method to obscure poisonings. Navalny, previously poisoned with Novichok, died in 2025 under suspicious circumstances, with tests confirming poisoning. His widow revealed that biological samples indicated he was killed, prompting further investigation into the toxins involved.
