Stretching for more than a thousand miles through Chile and Argentina, Patagonia is a place unlike any other: wild, isolated, pristine and unexplored.

It's Patagonia like you’ve never seen it before.

Updates on Alexey Navalny |
Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny was recently relocated to a maximum-security prison in Melekhovo in the Vladimir Region, according to Russia's state media outlet TASS citing Sergey Yazhan, chairman of the regional public oversight commission.
Navalny had mentioned the expected move in a Telegram post in May, writing: "My sentence has not yet entered into force, but the prisoners from the strict regime colony Melekhovo write that they are equipping a 'prison within a prison' for me."
His daughter, Dasha Navalnaya, spoke with CNN's Jim Sciutto about the conditions he faces following the transfer. You can watch the interview above.
If you want to learn more about Navalny's career and imprisonment, the CNN Film Navalny is available on HBO Max and CNNgo. The film follows the opposition leader's quest to discover the truth after surviving an assassination attempt.
