Additional information:

Journalists wanted to film material about the easing of quarantine in the city and the re-opening of beauty salons and hairdressers. A video shows the camera crew entering a hairdressing salon and ask for permission to film. However, they were refused: staff began to shout and rudely kick them out of the premises. Employees of the institution demanded from journalists to leave. One of the employees of the barbershop used obscene language.
