Two Russian artists have been arrested after throwing holy water and shouting "rise up and leave" at the mausoleum containing Vladimir Lenin's tomb.
A video of Monday's incident shows the men breaching a barrier to access the building in Moscow's Red Square before dowsing one of its walls with water.
Seconds later, police officers intervene and lead the two men to a nearby police vehicle.
They could be held for up to 15 days for disorderly conduct, reports say.
