Women marched against domestic violence in central Kyiv on Saturday.

About 50 people gathered on Kyiv’s Khreschatyk Street to protest domestic violence and march in support of women’s rights as a continuation of the #IamNotAfraidtoSayIt flashmob.
Women rights activists, LGBTQ activists and supporters walked along Khreschatyk Street from European Square to Lva Tolstogo Square chanting “I am not afraid to say, get rid of violence from the streets and houses” on Sept. 17.
