A couple of hundred protestors gathered outside the Permanent Mission of the Russian Federation opposite the UN in Geneva yesterday.

The focus of the demonstration was the plight of children in Ukraine. Many brought strollers to highlight their point. 

There were some Ukrainian refugees in the crowd, including children, who fled the war.

Organisers aim the protest will become a weekly event. It had permission from the police, but the demonstrators were told not to disturb ‘the peace’ of the Russian Mission.
