"Navalny's Funeral Draws Thousands in Moscow as Mourners Honor Symbol of Hope"

Thousands attended the funeral of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny in Moscow, with his mother and mother-in-law among the mourners who brought flowers to his grave the following day. Spontaneous memorials to Navalny were reportedly destroyed in several Russian cities, and at least 106 people were detained at events across Russia in his memory. Navalny's widow, Yulia, was not seen at the funeral, but has vowed to continue his work. The funeral followed a battle with authorities over the release of his body, with many Western leaders blaming his death on Russian President Vladimir Putin, a claim the Kremlin rejected.
