Unrest in Ukraine: Armed protesters clash with police in Kiev



euronews (in English) ·Published on Feb 19, 2014

Ukraine's Ministry of Internal Affairs on February 18 released footage from the clashes between protesters and security forces on the streets of the capital, Kiev. The video shows confrontations at close quarters, as well as police officers described as injured during the clashes.

The situation in Ukraine has deteriorated this week, and the clashes between the anti-government crowd and the police forces have been aggravated. Twenty six people were killed in the fighting in the capital on Tuesday (February 18), of which 10 were police officers, health ministry said.

Not protesters. This is not non-violent protest, quit twisting reality to sell your agenda.

It started similar to this.

And there is no such thing as a ''civil'' war. War is the least civil thing man has ever done.

As for ''selling''my agenda, I have only one agenda: Truth and Unconditional Love.

- Now, if you want to discuss those, we might have a basis for discussion. Clearly you're not up on history so we'll leave that right out.

If not, so be it -- no skin off my nose either way.
