Donetsk has been the scene of big pro-Russian demonstrations this weekSpeculation was growing last night
that American mercenaries had been deployed to Donetsk after videos
emerged of unidentified armed men in the streets of the eastern
Ukrainian city.
At least two
videos published on YouTube earlier this week show burly, heavily armed
soldiers with no insignia in the city, which has been gripped by
pro-Moscow protests.
In one
of the videos onlookers can be heard shouting 'Blackwater! Blackwater!'
as the armed men, who wear no insignia, jog through the streets.
