Ukraine: Makeevka activists call for independence
Activists occupied the grounds of the city administration building in Makeevka, eastern Ukraine, Monday, where they are calling for a greater degree of autonomy from Kiev. Operations in the building are continuing as usual, with one government employee declaring local authorities' support for the "people's will."
The Rada-appointed interim government in Kiev has threatened to intervene militarily against pro-Russian activists occupying administration buildings in the country's east.
