Tens of thousands protested in Moscow against their country's occupation of Crimea.
The rally, led by opposition leaders, was the largest in over a year.
Meanwhile, near the Kremlin, a few thousand showed up to support the occupation.
Some there called for Russia to invade the rest of Ukraine and bring the entire country into Russia.
As many as fifty thousand Russian troops have taken control of Crimea, where tomorrow a vote is to be held on whether the region should leave Ukraine and join Russia.
Another twenty thousand Russian troops have set up along the border, with Ukraine, while two hundred thousand more are involved in maneuvers a couple hours from the border.
