Russian security forces raided gay clubs and bars across Moscow Friday night, less than 48 hours after the country’s top court banned what it called the “global LGBTQ+ movement” as an extremist organization.
Police searched venues across the Russian capital, including a nightclub, a male sauna, and a bar that hosted LGBTQ+ parties, under the pretext of a drug raid, local media reported.
Eyewitnesses told journalists that clubgoers’ documents were checked and photographed by the security services. They also said that managers had been able to warn patrons before police arrived.

Milonov. He makes a lot of anti-gay statements, but he is gossiped to be gay.
I think I’ve read he was openly gay in the 90s (I mean, Zhirinovsky too to some extent) and there are photos of him from parties of the relevant thematic. I think I saw them even.
Zhirik is his own phenomenon. There are for example Zhirinovsky’s Sauna Boys - a group of men, who were often seen in sauna with him and then got position like Degtyarov.
