Twitter suspended the account of Yulia Navalnaya, the widow of the late Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, as reported by Brad Reed for Raw Story.

According to Sky News, it is unclear why Navalnaya's account was suspended, and her latest posts were demands to the Russian government to return her late husband's body. The account was suspended for roughly an hour, although it appears to be back online as of this writing, as reported by the Agence France-Presse (AFP).
Twitter CEO Elon Musk has a long history of criticizing American foreign policy regarding aid to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia. However, it is unknown at this point if Musk played any role in the decision to suspend Navalnaya's account.
The death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has further weakened a rapidly shrinking Russian opposition, with its members being assassinated, given lengthy prison sentences, or forced into exile as Russian President Vladimir Putin makes it clear he will not tolerate challenges to his regime.
