Moscow Posts Record Daily Virus Deaths
Moscow on Sunday recorded 144 Covid-19 deaths in the last 24 hours, the worst toll in a Russian city since the start of the pandemic, news reports said quoting official data.
Moscow's record comes a day after one set by Euro host Saint Petersburg, where a quarter-final is to be held on Friday in front of thousands of fans. Covid-19 infections have been surging in Russia for weeks, blamed on the highly transmissible Delta variant.
