Today March 11 2014 Pro-Russia people in Eastern Ukraine held a Referendum or Vote to become the "Donetsk People's Republic". I along with a translator went to the polling stations to see what people had to say. In the month leading up to Referendum most of the government buildings in eastern Ukraine where occupied by heavily armed Pro-Russians. Some of the government buildings where taken peacefully and some where taken violently. On May 1st the Ukraine Government began a ATO or Anti-Terrorism Operation to Regan control of the region. Since then Eastern Ukraine has descended into civil war. In Odessa there was a battle in the streets between Pro-Russian people and Pro-Ukrainian people. Three people where shot dead on the street and forty three Pro-Russians where burned alive after going into the occupied Trade Union building. At Least Three Ukrainian Military helicopters have been shot down in the Donbass/Donetsk region. There have been many People , unarmed civilians, Pro-Russian militia, and Ukrainian military, ether shot dead or tortured and killed in Mariupol, Donetsk, Sloviansk, Kramatorsk. and many other city's. People are dying literally everyday. Somewhere between one and two hundred people have been killed in the last week and a half. I wonder why after the most deadly 10 day period of the Ukrainian crisis the issue is not being covered by western media as heavily as it was before the civil war started.
