UPD: 24/01/2014 In seven regions of Ukraine, a popular uprising is raging: activists are storming the OGA and erecting barricades. PHOTO report + VIDEO

People go to rallies, strike and put forward demands to the authorities and law enforcement agencies, and also storm or take the siege of the OGA.

Thursday, January 23, was a new stage in the confrontation between the people of Ukraine and its current government. And the main events unfolded not in Kiev, where a truce was declared, but in the regions. As expected, the first to speak was Western Ukraine. In Lviv, Rivne and Ternopil, thousands of people came to the streets. They conducted the veche in the central square, after which they occupied the buildings of the regional state administrations. This process was very quick and with minimal resistance from local law enforcement agencies. The police either did not interfere at all, or limited themselves to closing doors to administrative buildings that were quickly knocked out, NR2.ru reported.

Now hundreds of self-defense are being formed in the rebellious western regions and barricades are being built near the buildings of the OGA. Here, the field kitchens are equipped.

Mourning, warning strikes, pickets of siloviki and journalistic protests. In the Ukrainian regions differently respond to the capital's events, the TSN story says.

More than half a thousand people gathered under the walls of the regional state administration in Ivano-Frankivsk for a preventive strike. They paid tribute to the memory of those who died in Kiev "Euro-Maidan". The policemen, who were guarded by a tight ring at the entrance to the administration, were forced to remove their headdresses. At the request of the protesters, the governor came out. But neither to write a letter of resignation, nor to withdraw from the Party of Regions, as people called him, did not agree. The strike lasted more than 2 hours. After that, the protesters marched through the streets of the city.

In Ternopil, the Arts Square was renamed the Heroes Square of EuroMaidan. So the city deputies decided. They also appealed to the president demanding that the laws passed on January 16 be abolished. And the townspeople meanwhile picket the regional police for the fourth day in a row. Today, find out on whose side the Ternopil siloviki came, poets and artists. There was a small scuffle when angry protesters saw that the policeman in civilian clothes was fixing everything on the camera.

The leading newspapers of Melitopol and Chernivtsi came out with white stripes. Thus, journalists are protesting against new laws passed by the Verkhovna Rada and signed by the president. In place of the traditional editorials, only advertising blocks from Zaporizhzhya were kept. And Bukovinian - slogans "Dictatorship - NO! Anti-constitutional laws are not RECOGNIZED!". "This is not our last action, we are planning a series of events that are within our power, which together with other media will continue until these laws are abolished," Bogdan Zagaysky, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper Molodaya Bukovynets, promised.

White cloths, smeared with red paint, national flags with funeral ribbons and photos of those who died on the Hrushevsky multi-hundred column demonstrators carried through the streets of Lutsk . The demonstrators walked along the sidewalks, trying not to obstruct the traffic, made short stops in crowded places, near the buildings of the Security Service, the prosecutor's office and the police. The youth called the action a march not indifferent.

Earlier it was reported that in six regions, the protesters took control of local regional governments. In Lviv, Zhytomyr, Rovno and Khmelnitsky, the premises were seized.

In Zhytomyr, local protesters went on storming the regional state administration after the deputies did not support the proposal to include the issue of the socio-political situation in Ukraine on the agenda of the January 23 session. After the storm, the deputies changed their minds and included an urgent issue on the agenda: 76 votes in favor.

In Rivne, the storming of the OGA took place after the People's Veche, though without vandalism there could not have been done - the protesters knocked out the door. They demanded the acting governor of the region, Anatoly Yukhimenko, to contact President Viktor Yanukovych in telephone mode to remove the Berkut fighters and internal troops from the capital. Also, activists demanded that the deputies of the regional council hold an extraordinary session today, and the authorities handed over the People's Rada.

In Khmelnytsky, the protesters also seized the building of the regional state administration and barricaded the entrance to the premises. Activists formed a living corridor through which officials are going to let in and out. Another 20 activists blocked the entrances to the building. In addition, an unlimited action is announced in the city center.

Outraged protesters tried to storm the Poltava Regional State Administration , but their determination could be stopped by the local police chief Vitaly Yemets. He took off his hat to honor a minute of silence of the killed activists in Kiev, and the National Anthem of Ukraine sang along with all. After that, the protesters managed to dissuade from further escalation of the conflict.

In Cherkassy, protesters broke into the building of the OGA after a brief assault and aggressive defense. After the break through the door, a shot could be heard, the media reported. Also in the building are people in full ammunition. Meanwhile, activists continued to pour water at minus temperature.

The protesters in Ternopil seized the building of the State Administration. Several thousand people stormed the premises for more than an hour. Outside, the entrance doors were blocked by policemen, and the entrance was blocked from the inside by the Berkut. People first pulled out police officers one by one, tore off their shoulder straps and passed them on to the crowd, and then broke the doors and broke through. "Berkut" rushed to the last.
