 Spouses of Russian soldiers conscripted into the army from Moscow and sent to Ukraine have held a protest rally in the Russian capital. Family members of the military personnel joined the Russian Communist Party's rally to convey their voices to relevant institutions after their request to hold a separate rally was declined back in October. The women attending the rally said their husbands have been fighting for a long time without any leave despite the fact that they are entitled to a leave according to the law. The rally participants raised the placards with the slogans justice for the mobilized and return the mobilized. The rally lasted for five minutes and was dispersed by police. The leadership of the Communist Party pledged to convey the protesters' demands to the leadership of the country and the army.
