Residents of Khabarovsk, around 3,800 miles and seven time zones east of Moscow, are unhappy about the July 9 detention of the wider region’s popular regional governor, Sergei Furgal, who was arrested on murder charges he denies. Footage of the protest showed people chanting “Disgrace!” and slogans demanding Putin resign because local people had lost trust in him.
The protests have highlighted anger among some in the far east over what they see as policies emanating from detached Moscow-based authorities on the other side of the country.

Chicago Activist Groups Sue to Block Federal Agents From Interfering With ProtestsBlack Lives Matter Chicago and other Chicago activist groups have filed a lawsuit against the Acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Chad Wolf, Attorney General William Barr, and other heads of federal agencies in an attempt to block the deployment of federal forces in the city. The suit was filed in a U.S. District Court in Illinois a day after the Justice Department announced the expansion of Operation Legend, a federal initiative that will involve sending “anti-violent crime task forces” to cities including Chicago, Kansas City, and Albuquerque. Although the stated purpose of deploying these federal agents under Operation Legend is to support local law enforcement in “combating violence in American cities”, many fear that Chicago will soon end up in a similar situation to Portland, where “unidentified federal troops” have descended on the city, brutalizing protestors and detaining them in unmarked vans in an apparent effort to quell the recent protests against police brutality.
