Moscow’s ten-week long strict lockdown will begin to loosen from Tuesday. Since March 29, residents have endured significant restrictions on their movement throughout the city, but normal life is now set to resume, in stages.

Residents of the capital have had to comply with a self-isolation regime since March 29. Since then, cafes, gyms, and most shops have been closed.

From April 15, Muscovites were required to apply online for a QR-code pass to leave the house for almost any reason except food shopping.

In the last two weeks, authorities have gradually begun to soften restrictions, and residents have been allowed to go for walks subject to a strict schedule, set by the local government. All these restrictions will be scrapped.
