Makeshift Hospital in Kyiv Operates between Life, Death and Barricades
Monday, February 3, 2014
On January 21, Yuriy Verbytsky suffered an eye injury during a violent clash with riot police in Kyiv. He went to Oleksandrivska Hospital with his friend, Igor Lutsenko. Minutes after the men were admitted, a clique of men entered their hospital room and beat them before dragging them from the building.
Two days later, Verbytsky’s dead body was found, with traces of duct tape over his face.
