''Thousands occupy Moscow in post-vote showdown''

"Thousands have taken to the streets of Moscow for two major rallies – for and against the outcome of the presidential vote. People on Manezhnaya Square are celebrating Putin’s victory while those on Pushkin Square are protesting at the result.

About 14,000 people have gathered on Pushkinskaya Square to rally “For Fair Elections,” according to police estimates. Organizers, however, say between 20,000 and 40,000 people took part in the demonstration."
