Reportage from Euromaidan

Euromaidan is a group of photos taken during the civil unrest in Ukraine, Kiev.
Civil Unrest in Kiev began on the night of 21 November 2013 with public protests demanding closer European integration. The scope of the protests expanded, with many calls for the resignation of President Viktor Yanukovych and his government. Many protesters joined because of the violent dispersal of protesters on 30 November and "a will to change life in Ukraine". By 25 January 2014, the protests had been fueled by the perception of widespread government corruption, abuse of power, and violation of human rights in Ukraine. Unrest stemming from the Euromaidan protests, and subsequent, violent government response, has prompted fears of civil war.
