The curfew will be valid until 06:00 (13:00 Moscow time). The National Guard will support the metropolitan police department.

Earlier it was reported that in Washington, police officers fired tear gas capsules on protesters. Participants in the riots began to pour water bottles on law enforcement officers, and then came close to the cordon. After the use of special equipment, the demonstrators fled.
