Alexei Navalny, Russian opposition leader, has been buried at a cemetery in Moscow after a funeral service earlier today.
Hundreds of people holding flowers and candles lined the streets, chanting Navalny's name and saying, "you weren't afraid, neither are we."
His allies livestreamed the events via his YouTube channel.
Navalny's wife and children did not attend the funeral - but Yulia Navalnaya took to social media shortly after the funeral, writing, "I don't know how I'm going to live without you, but I will try my best to make you happy and proud of me."
