Russian President Vladimir Putin has postponed a vote on constitutional change that would allow him to stay in power, because of concerns over coronavirus.
He said the public vote - previously due to be held on 22 April - would be delayed until a "later date".
The proposed changes include scrapping a ban on allowing Mr Putin to run for office again.
He also announced that Russians would not work next week "to slow the speed" of the infection.
