Despite calls from the opposition to support the “Way Home” rally in the Alexander Garden today, it is not very different in size from similar protests on previous Saturdays.

Now the wives and mothers of those mobilized are laying flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Today the action is timed to coincide with 500 days of mobilization, during which those mobilized without Putin’s order cannot return home.
Relatives of those mobilized from the regions came to the “Ways Home” rally near the Kremlin walls

They tell how their loved ones were taken into the army during raids.

There are also “streamers” from the “Volunteer Company” in the crowd, filming the protest participants.
The police on Manezhnaya Square began detaining journalists covering the “Way Home” protest: now virtually all male journalists have been detained.
Detentions on Manezhnaya Square take place without explanation; men are taken away into paddy wagons.
Maria Andreeva from “The Way Home” blocked the paddy wagon with the detainees and did not allow him to take them away.

According to Andreeva, a relative of the mobilized man is inside: “This is our man, he has not violated anything, check the documents and let him go.”
Representatives of “The Way Home” walked from Manezhnaya Square to the headquarters of presidential candidate Putin: there the police continued arresting those men whom they had not managed to capture at Manezhnaya.

In addition, those who came were greeted by provocateurs from the Volunteer Company with their traditional tea and blankets.
