Най-малко 735 души са били задържани по време на протестите в подкрепа на Украйна и срещу действията на Руската федерация на територията на Русия. Демонстрации се проведоха в 40 града на страната.
Само в Москва арестуваните са над 300.
Преди демонстрациите от Министерството на вътрешните работи предупредиха гражданите да не участват в подобни незаконни прояви, защото те са в нарушение на противоепидемичните мерки в страната.
Малко по-късно започнаха и първите арести.

We are in downtown Moscow where hundreds are protesting against the Ukraine invasion. Arrests. A large police presence. It takes a special kind of bravery to protest in Putin’s Russia - especially on the day he sends his country to war. pic.twitter.com/zDJEEKU03m

Police on the streets of Moscow, Russia tonight. A protest has been called against Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine. It is unsanctioned and police are clearly ready to use force against protesters. pic.twitter.com/xsqOpA3rhQ
