MANILA, Philippines – Gunfire shattered a shaky truce in Ukraine as the bloody clashes in the capital Kiev continue.

News reports said live rounds were used, but it’s unclear who fired them. CNN reported medics for the protesters claimed 100 people died in the fighting that left parts of Kiev’s historic city center engulfed in flames.

Just hours earlier, President Viktor Yanukovych called a truce with the opposition in a bid to ease tensions. The government blamed the protesters for breaking the truce.

The deadly protests began November when Yanukovych ditched a trade deal with the European Union.

This Youtube video with over 3 million views explains the protesters cause.
