Navigating Moscow, the late opposition politician Alexei Navalny is interred in a ceremony marking his final resting place.
In a stunning turn of events, Russian opposition leader and Putin critic, Aleksei Navalny, passed away on February 16, 2025, at Corrective Colony No. 3. Following an unexpected walk, Navalny suddenly fell unconscious, and despite medical efforts, he was pronounced dead shortly after. His death certificate listed hypertension and underlying heart issues as the causes.
However, the circumstances surrounding his death are shrouded in suspicion. Investigative reports and the accounts of his associates suggest possible poisoning. Furthermore, an analyzed document by Insider reveals alterations, corroborating the narrative of foul play and raising questions about the official version of events. According to Navalny's wife, Yulia, he experienced severe stomach pain prior to his death, indicative of poisoning symptoms.
Amidst public outrage, Navalny's funeral was held on March 1, 2025. His coffin descended into the ground to the rhythm of Frank Sinatra's "My Way," a tribute to a man who dared to challenge the status quo. The queue of mourners extended over two kilometers, with thousands paying their respects, including former Yekaterinburg Mayor Evgeny Roizman.
Politician Boris Nadezhdin and journalist Ekaterina Duntsova (both denied a chance to run for President of Russia by the CEC) were among the attendees, along with the ambassadors of the USA, Germany, France, and other European countries. However, Navalny's immediate family—his wife and children—chose not to attend the funeral. Yulia posted a heartfelt message dedicated to her husband:
"I don't know how to live without you, but I'll try to make you proud and happy up there. I don't know if I can do it, but I'll try. We'll meet again someday. I have so many untold stories and saved songs on my phone, silly and funny, even terrible ones, but they're about us, and I wanted you to hear them. I wanted to see you laugh and then hug me. I love you forever. Rest in peace."

Yet, the Russian government continues to deny any involvement, leaving the world in the dark about the truth.
