In Israel, home to a large number of people who came from Russia, hundreds rallied outside the Russian Embassy in Tel Aviv after the death of dissident Alexei Navalny in an Arctic penal colony, chanting “Russia without Putin!” and “Russia will be free!”

Israeli leaders have yet to comment on Navalny’s death, which Western leaders have roundly denounced and blamed on the Kremlin.
