Ukraine crisis: Troops surround pro-Russian stronghold

First topic message reminder :

Ukrainian troops have surrounded the pro-Russian stronghold of Sloviansk in the east, with residents saying they fear they will be stormed.
At present the troops appear to be concentrating on retaking government buildings from separatists in smaller towns around Sloviansk.
Pro-Russian groups have reacted angrily to the deaths of many separatists in a fire in Odessa in the south on Friday.
Dozens were killed after barricading themselves in a building in the city.
'Absurd'
The BBC's Sarah Rainsford in the regional capital Donetsk says that while it appears Ukrainian forces have sealed off the roads in and out of Sloviansk, they are moving around the city and concentrating on smaller towns nearby.

Well, well, well, it seems it is the Ukrainians that have balls, and that Putin is too afraid to react, knowing full well if he invades the west will respond. Guess those who hero worship him are looking a tad silly, as fair play to the Ukrainian Government, they are fighting back from the underhanded tactics used by Russia.
