Discussion for article #222422
BBC has the most objective reporting on Ukraine in the west. Apparently the destruction in Odessa was initiated by thousands of marching pro-government soccer fans who set fire to a tent village of pro-Russia demonstrators, many of whom then took refuge in the Trades Union building. The soccer ,fans (“ultras”) then torched the building, beating people as they tried to escape and causing the deaths of 31 people inside.
30 pro-Russian demonstrators killed. Okay, stay off the main highway to Kiev, ‘cuz the tanks’ll be a rollin’.
