A group of Russian protesters marched through the streets of Moscow to demand Vladimir Putin launch a missile strike on the United States and other Western capitals for aiding Kyiv. Chanting to the tune of Queen's We Will Rock You, the activists called for Putin and his army to target "the decision-making centres" in retaliation for the support shown to Ukraine. Footage from the Russian capital showed the group walking down the street chanting and waving banners supporting Russian troops involved in the ongoing war in Ukraine.A man leading the protest said: "Strike the decision-making centres. On Washington. Strike the decision-making centres. On Washington."A flight task for Sarmat missiles. Sarmat, strike the enemy's cities. On Washington. The USA is the enemy.
"We will go to heaven as martyrs. They will simply croak. Take your aim, Ivan! Launch the Akhmat."
Support for Vladimir Putin has remained strong despite pockets of protests emerging since he announced the conscription of 300,000 men in September.
Footage of conscripts has been circulating online showing troops threatening to mutiny after receiving no payment, no training and no equipment to fight against the Ukrainians.
And earlier this week Moscow announced soldiers would be withdrawn from Kherson as Ukraine's defence force continues to advance eastwards.Ukraine is yet to claim the city is back in Ukrainian hands, but the country's president Volodymyr Zelensky said "life is returning".Russian forces still control about 70 percent of the wider Kherson region in the wake of the withdrawal.See the rest including photos and video of the We Will Rock You version here:https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1695778/Russia-march-Moscow-Washington-Sarmat-missile-strike-Ukraine-invasion-vn
