Protests Erupt In Moscow Over Ukraine Crisis

September 23, 2014

Several thousand people in Moscow took to the streets Sunday to protest the war in Ukraine and how the Russian government has handled the crisis there, CNN has learned.

Separately, a smaller anti-U.S. protest took place in front of the U.S. Embassy, according to Russian news outlet ITAR-TASS. Several people carried signs that read, "Obama, keep your hands off Ukraine," the news agency said.

It's unclear if anyone was detained.
