Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin asked Russia's regional governors on Monday to consider imposing the same restrictions on movement to halt the spread of the coronavirus that has been imposed in Moscow, the RIA news agency reported.

Authorities in the capital announced a partial lockdown on Sunday, ordering residents to stay at home from Monday in their toughest move yet to slow the spread of coronavirus after the number of official cases in Moscow passed the 1,000 marks.
