On Sunday, 60 people were detained by Moscow police during a rally organized by Russia’s Kremlin-friendly Communist Party. The arrests occurred as the event was concluding and primarily affected young participants, with the party's Moscow branch working to secure their release. The protest marked the anniversary of the 1993 parliamentary uprising quashed by then-President Boris Yeltsin, and demonstrators chanted slogans calling for fair elections and denouncing authoritarian rule. Public unrest has been growing in Russia due to Ukrainian drone strikes that have disrupted daily life and infrastructure across the country.
