Today, Alexei Navalny could have turned 49, but he remained forever 47 after being killed in a colony in Harp on February 16, 2024. Several dozen people came to his grave at Borisovskoye Cemetery in Moscow, including Lyudmila Navalnaya, Alla Abrosimova, Tatyana, and Valery Yashin.
As SOTAvision** writes, four National Guard officers at the entrance ask visitors to show their bags and even bouquets. About ten officers from the Center "E" closely monitor the visitors, filming everyone on their phones.
A memorial prayer for the deceased was conducted at the grave. The ceremony was again led by priest Dmitry Safronov — former priest of the Moscow Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin on Lyshchikova Hill. In April 2024, he was banned from service for three years for conducting memorial services at Navalny's grave.
Memorial events on Alexei Navalny's birthday will take place around the world.
