There s nobody coming through at the moment, but some people coming through with carnations, red flowers, showing being checked as much as possible. again, you know, a cloak of secrecy over it. we don t know exact funeral arrangements are going to be. we do know from this morning that the kremlin said that vladimir putin, the russian president, will not be attending this ceremony. the kremlin is saying that s a matter for the family. it will be a private affair. again, it talks to this idea that the kremlin as much as possible want this to be a low key affair. they re not keen to talk up the death of yevgeny prigozhin because there are all sorts of suspicions despite the fact that the kremlin denied any involvement. there are still lots of suspicions despite those denials that the killing of yevgeny prigozhin, his plane crash could have had involvement of the russian state. there s no evidence of that yet. there s an investigation under way. but again, you speak to ordinary
Cemetery which is in st. petersburg, one of the biggest cemeteries in the russian city. and you can see behind me, sort of forested area with a whole load of graves in it. tens of thousands of people have been buried here over the years since it was founded in nearly 20th century. and it s here that we believe that yevgeny prigozhin, the mercenary wagner chief who was killed last week in that plane crash will be laid to rest, will be buried. it s not easy to tell you exactly because a cloak of secrecy, frankly phil, has been thrown all over this. the officials aren t telling us what s happening. there s no official announcement about when the funeral is going to be, but there are lots of indications that this is the place. and let s just have a look over here. let me show you over here. unusually there s been security placed outside the gates. they set uptedetecters. police put outside checking people as they come through.
