Thousands Protest Russian Involvement in Ukraine Civil War 
-----------------------------------------------------------


 
Thousands of people have rallied in Moscow to oppose Russian involvement
in Ukraine's civil war. More than 3,000 people have died since fighting
between Ukrainian forces and Russian-backed separatists erupted in
April. A crowd of up to 20,000 turned out for Sunday's march, chanting
slogans including "No to War." The violence has slowed, though not
ceased, since a truce was reached earlier this month.
