Crowds chant anti-Putin slogans at Navalny funeral

Thousands of mourners gathered today at the funeral of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who died from poisoning last week. As the funeral procession made its way through the streets of Moscow, crowds began to chant anti-Putin slogans and demand justice for Navalny’s death.

Navalny, a vocal critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, had been outspoken about corruption within the Russian government and had organized numerous protests against Putin’s regime. His death has sparked outrage both within Russia and internationally, with many calling for a thorough investigation into the circumstances of his poisoning.

The chants of “Putin is a murderer” and “Justice for Navalny” echoed through the streets as the funeral procession reached its final destination. Russian authorities have yet to comment on the protests, but many fear that the government will crack down on dissent in the wake of Navalny’s death.

Despite the risks, mourners remain determined to continue their fight for justice and accountability in Russia. The legacy of Alexei Navalny will live on in the hearts of those who refuse to be silenced in the face of oppression.
