Moscow Street Fight: Migrants Detained, Deportation and Citizenship Revocation
Imagine a big argument turned into a fight on a street in Moscow.
Lots of people were involved, and the police took over 80 people in for questioning.
Some people were arrested, and the government is thinking about kicking out those who aren't from Russia and might even take away citizenship from some Russian citizens involved.
This is happening because there's a big debate in Russia about how many people from other countries are living there.
The government has become stricter about immigration since a bad event that happened in 2024.
More than 80 people were taken for questioning after a street fight in Moscow.
19 people were arrested for hooliganism.
Foreigners involved in the fight will be deported.
Migrants with Russian citizenship may have their citizenship revoked.
The incident occurred near the Prokshino residential complex.
