Thousands gather in Moscow to bid farewell to Navalny despite pressure from authorities.

Venetsialainen johtaja Alexei Navalny on haudattu Moskovassa tiukan turvallisuustarkastuksen keskellä. Tuhannet venäläiset kerääntyivät kirkon ulkopuolelle osoittaakseen tukensa oppositiopolitiikalle ja vannoen, etteivät anna viranomaisten kuoleman jäädä kostamatta. Vaikka pelko poliisin crackdownista on ollut läsnä, Navalnyn hautajaiset sujuivat rauhallisesti. Venäjän viranomaiset varoittivat ihmisia 'epävirallisista kokoontumisista,' mutta fanit ja tukijat eivät taipuneet uhkailuun. Navalnyn hautauksen aikana kaikuivat vastustuksen kannatushuudot Moskovan kaduilla, luoden yhtenäisyyttä ja voimaa surun keskellä. Poliisin läsnäolosta huolimatta transsendenttinen tunnelma vallitsi, kun ihmiset ilmaisivat tunteitaan ja vaativat oikeutta ja totuutta.
