After more than two months in lockdown, Moscow is easing restrictions - citing a slowdown in the virus outbreak. Here's what will open in the capital from Tuesday: 

  • Residents will no longer need electronic passes for travel, and can walk, use public transport and drive without restrictions
  • Hairdressers and beauty salons will be allowed to reopen
  • Cafes and restaurants will be able to open outdoor terraces from 16 June. Public facilities like museums and libraries will also be allowed to open then
  • The third phase, which starts on 23 June, will see indoor dining resume, and facilities like gyms and swimming pools reopen

Under the lockdown imposed in March, all non-essential businesses were closed. Moscow is the epicentre of Russia's outbreak with more than 197,000 cases.
