Thousands gather for Navalny's funeral, defying Kremlin

Alexei Navalny, Russia's opposition leader, was buried Friday on the outskirts of Moscow, two weeks after his suspicious death in a Siberian prison camp. He was mourned by thousands in the streets amid threats by the Kremlin and a massive police presence. Navalny showed in death he could still conjure resistance to Putin's authoritarian rule.
