The funeral of Alexei Navalny will be held Friday and that the service will be open to the public.
This morning's announcement on social media says the funeral will be held at a Russian Orthodox church followed by a burial at a nearby cemetery in Moscow.
Mourners who attend the services may be facing a risk.
After Navalny's death at a Russian prison earlier this month, hundreds of people were detained across the country for simply attending one of his memorials.
