“With us in the column are 6 activists from Crimea and Ilmi Umerov’s daughter Aisha,” Feigin wrote. He posted a photo of 6 people carrying a poster “Stop repression in Crimea. Freedom for Ukrainian political prisoners." Before the start of the action, the lawyer complained that the poster was not allowed to be carried to the procession, but did not specify who.
Also on Rozhdestvensky Boulevard, several activists standing on the side of the road were holding a Ukrainian towel with the inscription “Crime”. One Ukrainian flag was visible in the crowd.
In general, the column of demonstrators chanted “Hands off Ukraine” only a few times, and then switched to anti-Putin slogans.
According to police estimates, 5 thousand people took part in the march; according to the organizers themselves, almost 15 thousand.
