    About our Moscow news

    Latest news on Moscow, providing comprehensive coverage of Russia's capital city, including war impacts, politics, sanctions, economy, protests, and developments in the nerve center of Europe's largest ongoing conflict.

    Moscow, the capital and most populous city of Russia with over 13 million residents, stands at the epicenter of the country's ongoing war against Ukraine. As the seat of the Russian government and home to the Kremlin, Moscow plays a crucial role in directing military operations and shaping the narrative around the conflict.

    Recent developments in Moscow have centered around the war's impact on daily life, including economic sanctions, political tensions, and occasional protests. The city has seen increased security measures and crackdowns on dissent, while also grappling with the economic fallout of international sanctions. Despite these challenges, the Moscow City government continues to implement urban renewal projects and infrastructure improvements, presenting a facade of normalcy.

    Moscow's cultural scene has been affected by the war, with some international events and collaborations cancelled or postponed. However, many institutions like the Bolshoi Theatre and Tretyakov Gallery continue to operate, albeit with a more domestically focused programme. The city's parks and public spaces host events that often carry patriotic themes, reflecting the current political climate.

    Founded in 1147, Moscow has a history of resilience through conflict. From Napoleonic invasions to World War II, the city has repeatedly found itself at the heart of major historical events. Today, as Russia engages in its largest military operation since 1945, Moscow once again finds itself navigating a period of intense global scrutiny and internal challenges.

    Stay informed about all aspects of life in Russia's capital with our comprehensive Moscow news feed. From war-related developments and Kremlin decisions to economic impacts and public reactions, our curated selection of stories from reliable sources keeps you up-to-date on this pivotal global city as it grapples with its role in a major international conflict.
