The BBC reports that at least 22 people have died today in Kiev,
Ukraine, as result of the violent clashes between the opposition and the
government forces.
I have briefly visited Maidan Nezalezhnosti in March 2012 on my way to a
Wiki Loves Monuments workshop; the city of Kiev and the square itself
were beautiful, and it is absolutely terrible to witness the events that
are happening there now.
My thoughts are with Wikimedia Ukraine, which I know has at least a few
members living in the city of Kiev, and with other Wikimedia
contributors living in that city, as well as in the rest of Ukraine.
Please let us know if everyone is safe, and if there is any way we can
help you.
Stay safe! Залишайтеся в безпеці!
