One of the senior of­ficers of the elite po­lice unit “OMEGA” held a press con­fer­ence and veri­fied protestors claims of the sniper activity by someone dressed in a Berkut uni­form. However, he stated that the sniper(s) was shooting at both protestors and the po­lice. He spoke of the il­legal use of AK-​47s by Berkut mem­bers and al­luded to clear evid­ence of the in­volve­ment of a “third force”. Ukraine's interim government draws up a warrant for Yanukovich's arrest. Meanwhile, people continue in Maidan community organised groups to occupy Maidan.
