The ban is the Russian government's latest move to increase pressure on opposition supporters, independent journalists and human rights activists.
Navalny's own website was included, in addition to dozens of other sites run by his close allies. Last month, Navalny's Foundation for Fighting Corruption and its network of about 40 regional offices were outlawed for being extremist groups.
The 68-year-old Russian leader, who has been in power for more than two decades, pushed through constitutional changes last year that would potentially allow him to hold onto power until 2036. His arrest and jailing sparked a wave of mass protests across Russia's 11 time zones, in what appeared to be a major challenge for the Kremlin. The authorities responded with mass arrests of demonstrators and the criminal prosecutions of Navalny's closest associates.
