Russian troops began to defect to Dmitry's side.

The envoys of Pseudo-Demetrius I (or False Dmitry I) on June 11 (N. S.), 1605, arrive at Moscow to demand Fyodor’s removal, and the letters which they read publicly in what is today Red Square decide his fate.

A group of boyars, unwilling to swear allegiance to the new tsar, seizes control of the Kremlin and arrests him.
