Traffic was blocked in Devyatinsky Lane in the centre of Moscow, the new location of the US diplomatic mission.
Interior forces servicemen and a communications vehicle arrived. The total of 420 people, including OMON (a special purpose police unit) were involved to ensure order, Moscow's GUVD (the Main Interior Affairs Department) reported.
