After a brief respite in violence, at least 77 people including a number of police and journalists are reported to have been killed over the past few days in renewed violence in Ukraine's capital Kiev. This period of hostility was prompted when police reportedly stormed antigovernment protest camps in Independence Square on Feb. 18.
The situation at present does not warrant a general evacuation, however, this could change and companies should be ready and prepared to move. Although not a specific target, foreign nationals may get caught up in collateral violence.
