Pro-Russian Militia Barricades Streets in Sloviansk

Members of a Pro-Russia militia stood guard at makeshift barricades in Sloviansk, east Ukraine, on April 14. The local police headquarters was raided by masked men on April 12, and activists have held the building since then. A deadline, set by the Ukrainian government, for pro-Russia activists to lay down their weapons and end the occupation of state buildings passed early on April 14, without any de-escalation from pro-Russian separatists.
