Residents of Yekaterinburg hugged a pond
Residents of Yekaterinburg for the third time hugged the pond in the city center, thus expressing a protest against the project for the development of the reservoir. Two thousand people, holding hands, stood along the banks of the pond with a live chain. The restoration of the temple of Catherine, built in the year of the founding of Yekaterinburg, and demolished in Soviet times, has been violently discussed by citizens, officials and experts for a year.
