What started as a student protest against cancellation of the pro-European policy on Independence Square turned into a violent and long-lasting protest of the whole country against the corrupted regime of the ex-president Viktor Yanukovich. This story kicks off at the beginning of December and follows the protest through some of the most important events, including the January violence on Hrushevskoho street and final stage, the deadly battles on Instytutska street on February 18th and 20th.
