Near the traditional picket, which the Solidarity movement holds in Moscow every weekend, this time a group of about 20 people gathered, among whom activists of the pro-Kremlin movement were noticed. Some time later, they began to attack the picketers: they tore out posters and flags, broke the poles, and in some places it turned into an open fight.
