Maidan protests in Moscow were washed away by rain

(Moscow time), Moscow
Unauthorized protests by opposition supporters in Moscow ended earlier than expected - the reason was heavy rain in the capital.
Journalists from the Rupor Moskvy channel, who sympathize with the opposition and broadcast from the center of the capital, suggested that the rain could have been caused artificially from helicopters flying over the protesters.
According to OVD-info, a total of 685 people were detained during today's demonstrations.
It is interesting that today among the Ministry of Internal Affairs employees working in the center of Moscow, Sergei Kusyuk, the former deputy commander of the Berkut special forces regiment, who left for Russia after the Euromaidan, was noticed.
