Protests were peetering
out and then at 4 a.m. the morning of Nov. 30th special units of the internal police
(the Berkuty) were instructed to violently clear the Maidan of the remaining
(and mainly sleeping) student protesters. Many flee to the historic St.
Michael’s monastery where a makeshift infirmary was established. The
bells of the monastery tolled which historically signalled an attack on
the city. Among the injured are students, bystanders, and members of the
media. Tens of thousands of citizens came to the Maidan. The overwhelming sentiment: how could they attack our children?
