Moscow anti-Putin rally draws thousands

Thousands of people have gathered for a rally in Moscow to mark the anniversary of a confrontation between opposition activists and police.

At least 30 people were arrested at last year's clashes in Bolotnaya Square ahead of President Vladimir Putin's swearing-in.

This year, demonstrators called on the government to release those who were jailed.
