Sunday's detainee count marks the highest in the country in recent days, with 4,366 people arrested across 55 Russian cities.
More than 4,000 people are currently being detained in Russia for protesting against the country's military operations in Ukraine.
"Each police department may have more detainees than published lists. We publish only the names of those people whom we know for certain and whose names we can publish," OVD-Info states on its website, according to a translation. Yulia Zhivtsova, who has been participating in protests, told NPR that she is worried about the risk of demonstrating, but said that"on the other hand, the situation has changed dramatically over the past few years."
