Residents of Chelyabinsk were left without alcohol on holidays. The authorities introduced a "ban" on public events. Restrictions apply to concerts, sporting events and holidays. Liquor will disappear from store shelves two hours before the start of the event and will not be available for another hour after it ends. The ban applies to the area where the event takes place and to areas adjacent to it. The local authorities will determine the boundaries of these areas three days in advance and will notify the businesses in advance. But cafes and restaurants will be able to sell alcohol without changes.
