The Moscow TsODD issued a message that all carsharing vehicles would be removed from the Moscow Kremlin area for several days. The AvtoVzglyad portal publishes a map of the restricted area.

Until May 10, access to short-term car rentals is limited. In the central part of the city, the function of starting and ending the lease will be temporarily unavailable, the Moscow Deptrans said in a statement.

It is also reported that this measure was taken “in connection with the events”. Recall that from May 8 to 9, Victory Day is celebrated in Moscow. On May 9, a military parade will take place on Red Square, in which Russian President Vladimir Putin will participate.

At the same time, we must not forget that on May 3, two drones attacked the Kremlin. Then the security services turned on the electronic “jammers” of GPS signals in the center of the capital. In this regard, users of navigation applications began to have serious problems in determining their own coordinates. The expulsion of car sharing away from the Kremlin can be linked to this circumstance as well as to the demands of the security forces who ensure the safety of the parade.

After all, one of them could have assumed that the car-sharing car left behind in the center might be filled with explosives and could thus become a powerful bomb to organize a terrorist attack during the holiday.
