MOSCOW — Moscow police detained 68 people during anti-Kremlin demonstrations that drew hundreds of people on New Year’s Eve. Police said about 50 were detained at a similar protest in St. Petersburg.

In Moscow, an opposition group had city permission to hold a rally on one corner of a central square and it took place peacefully, with its leaders dressed as Father Frost and the Snow Maiden. Helmeted riot police detained people gathering elsewhere on the square.
