Separatists seized administration building of Shakhtiorsk

“Donetsk Republic” and Russia’s flags were placed on the building.

Representatives of separatists addressed the dwellers who had gathered, and after that they got upon a roof. They removed the flag of Ukraine and placed black-blue-red flag of “Donetsk Republic”. The Russian tricoloured flag was hanged out near the entrance to the administration, the local website 06255 informs.

After that separatists who gathered on the central square demanded the mayor of Shakhtiorsk to give premises in the regional administration for their chieftains.

We remind that since April 6 Russian groups and local separatists started planned seizures of buildings of administration in Eastern regions of Ukraine, as well as Interior Affairs Ministry and SBU buildings, which attract militants by their armoury arsenals.
