Traffic restrictions remain in place for a major highway, the M-4 "Don", in Moscow and in the Tula region, Russia's state highway company Avtodor said on Telegram Sunday, APA reports citing CNN.
This comes hours after Russia’s Federal Road Agency said all restrictions on highways in Russia had been lifted, according to Russian state media TASS.
On Saturday, Avtodor had advised drivers to avoid the M-4 as reports swirled that convoys of Wagner fighters were using the road.
Earlier in the day, TASS reported that car traffic had been blocked on the M-4 highway past Rostov-on-Don towards Aksay.
