Rioters in Ukraine’s capital Kiev are reportedly holding 2 policemen hostage authorities also say an officer was found shot dead in the city centre with another in hospital with stab wounds. And the fury in Kiev is spreading to Ukraine’s West – as RT’s Alexey Yaroshevsky reports. Meanwhile President Yanoukovich has agreed to several concessions – reshuffling his cabinet and pledging to review recent laws that introduced harsher punishments for rioters. However opposition leaders have called for citizens across Ukraine to form militias and “take control into their own hands” – RT’s Paula Slier travelled east of the capital to see if those calls were being heard there.
