"Shootout in Kramatorsk", Ukraine

"Pro-Russian forces are taking part and leading attacks on government buildings in Donetsk Oblast, including police and security service stations, said Interior Ministry Arsen Avakov.

...gun shots have been recorded in and outside the compound of the main police station in Kramatorsk...

Armed men stormed the building, said the Interior Ministry. The law enforcement website says that “a shootout is happening between police and unknown armed men.“

In Chervoniy Lyman, a district center of 20,000 people on the northern edge of Donetsk Oblast, Interior Minister Arsen Avakov said an attack on the local police station “by Russian forces” was repelled three hours ago.

The alleged Russians were armed with Russian-made AK 100 submachine guns that are only used by Russian military forces, said Interior Minister Arsen Avakov.

In Slovyansk, mobile communication towers have been destroyed, said Avakov. Earlier on April 11, pro-Russian forces, some of whom are suspected Russian military soldiers, had taken over the local police station and Security Service (KGB-successor agency) building in Slovyansk. Road blocks and check points were set up by pro-Russian forces at the same time.

“The government of Ukraine considers the facts of the present day as a manifestation of external aggression by Russia,” reads the Internal Ministry’s website.

Pro-Russian forces still occcupty the regional legislature building in Donetsk and the SBU building in Luhansk."

What could happen if a generation
of underemployed, underpaid, educated and indebted young adults
became disillusioned by their elders’ financial mismanagement
and sought to identify and punish those responsible?
