Russians honour Putin-critic Boris Nemtsov on 7th anniversary of killing

10:15


Russians gathered on Sunday morning to lay flowers and mark the seventh anniversary of the killing of Boris Nemtsov, a top Russian opposition figure.

Nemtsov, 55, a former deputy prime minister under ex-president Boris Yeltsin and vocal Kremlin critic under president Vladimir Putin, was shot to death as he walked along the Bolshoi Moskvoretsky bridge near the Kremlin in Moscow late at night on Feb. 27, 2015.

Borris would have been in shock about this war. We really miss his presence today,” said Tatyana Golika while laying flowers on the bridge.
