Yulia Borisovna Navalnaya (née Abrosimova; Russian: Юлия Борисовна Навальная, née Абросимова, IPA: [ˈjʉlʲɪjə nɐˈvalʲnəjə]; born 24 July 1976) is a Russian public figure and economist. The widow of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, she has been described in media as the "first lady" of the Russian opposition. After her husband's death, Navalnaya announced that she would continue his work.[1] As of 1 July 2024, Navalnaya is the chairperson of the Human Rights Foundation.

On 9 July 2024, Russia's Basmanny District Court ordered the arrest of Navalnaya (who was not in or living in Russia at the time) for "participating in an extremist community".[2] Days later, she was placed on Russia's official list of terrorists and extremists.[3]
