RT published this video item, entitled “Homeless struggling to get aid as Downtown DC closes off ahead of Inauguration” – below is their description.

Groups that provide support, meals and shelter to homeless people in Washington DC are cutting back their social services as the city ramped up security measures and closed off areas in Downtown DC ahead of Inauguration Day. Social workers are rushing to place unhoused people in shelters before January 20 or provide enough food to last for days. Many rough sleepers reportedly left the area already.
