Trucks packed with furniture and diplomats’ belongings left on Monday the grounds of the Dacha residence of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Sunday, Russia had ordered the United States to cut 755 of its 1,200 embassy and consulate staff by September and was seizing two diplomatic properties, including a Dacha compound in a picturesque spot in the Russian capital.

Russia threatens to retaliate further if U.S. moves further with its sanctions.
