Thousands Turn Out for Navalny’s Funeral

“Thousands of people crowded a neighborhood on Moscow’s outskirts on Friday — some bearing flowers and chanting, ‘No to war!’ — as they tried to catch a glimpse of the funeral for Aleksei Navalny,” the New York Times reports.

“The outpouring turned the opposition leader’s last rites into a striking display of dissent in Russia at a time of deep repression.”
