Protest Erupts Over Church Plan in Russian Park

In a city in Russia called Krasnodar, some people want to build a church in a park to honor soldiers who died in wars.

But many local residents are protesting because they want to keep the park green for their kids and grandkids.

They say the authorities aren't listening to them.

A TV channel that supports the church project has called the protesters 'raving Communists,' but this has only made more people join the protest.

The protesters say they are not against religion but want the law to be followed.

Some people in the city also say there are already enough churches.

The protest is rare because Russia has strict rules against public dissent.
