About 50,000 people take part in a second Saturday protest rally in Khabarovsk, Russia, against the arrest of Governor Sergei Furgal on charges of involvement in multiple murders 15 years ago, which Furgal denies. The protests, which also reflect the simmering discontent with the Kremlin’s policies, are the largest ever in Khabarovsk, a city of 590,000. The police didn't interfere with the rally. Protests are also taking place in Vladivostok and Komsomolsk-on-Amur.
