Navalny funeral: huge crowds pay tribute to Russian opposition leader
Thousands of mourners gathered in Moscow to bid farewell to the opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who died in an Arctic prison two weeks ago. Footage showed huge crowds chanting slogans and lining the streets of the Russian capital. The public show of support turned Navalny’s last journey into a rare display of dissent in Russia at a time of unprecedented repression. Many of the opposition leader’s family – including his wife, Yulia – live outside Russia and did not attend the funeral as they would risk arrest.

"NO TO WAR" rip.🙏🤎
Путлер убил Навального Путлер убил четыреста тысяч россиян 😢
And I don’t care about Naval. At all.😊
The silent Russian majority is with Putin, as the forthcoming elections will clearly demonstrate.
We love you, brave citizens of Russia. You've got GUTS.
This man is an ultra far right racist.
Courageous, principled, irreplaceable Alexei, you can NEVER die and will NEVER die …
… nor will the seed that you've planted of a better Russia, open, democratic and "beautiful" Russia, replacing Vlad the Small's 24-year kleptocracy and terrorist state.
Salute Navalny.
I wonder how many will willingly turn out for Pootin's funeral.
Russian people fightforFreedom
Every one of those people know that Putin killed Navalny

Wonder how vlads turnout will be?
Navalny was CIA ,MI6 stooge
In a city of 13 million and this is a mass demonstration of support for navalny? Pathetic. Tommy Robinson would get more people out in support.
Navalny is the guiding star of the Russian people.
Navalny has died.
But Democracy has resurrected.
Dictator Putin has been exposed to 8 billion people around the world.😢
not that many guardian readers in Russia
May his soul rest in peace,Amen.
“Leader”?😂 I wonder how western media chose heroes… Why there is so much about Navalny and so little about brave Palestinians who experience the worst genocide in history?! Send you my love from Russia, Palestinian heroes🇷🇺🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸❤️❤️❤️
Покойся с миром последний самурай Империи.
Julian Assange is hero, martyr, persecuted, tortured. Free Julian Assange.
Навального убили Свои капиталисты. Навальный был за капитализм и Власовец Путин тоже, Путину не нужен конкурент такой же как он буржуй. Вот Навальный от своих и поплатился! Что, Путин, что Навальный это одна система феодального капитализма! Для Путина американцы были всегда своими и для Навального кураторы из США тоже свои. Вспомнете как дурак народ в 1991 году кричал Ельцин, Ельцин, а сейчас в 2024 году такой же одураченный народ кричит Навальный, Навальный!!! Не уже ли народ до сих пор этого не понял !?.
А что в Америке своих предателей мало , и ещё сколько платили плакальщицам ?
two-faced creatures! freedom for Julian Assange!
Russia will be free.
