Fierce fight in Ukraine parliament | ||||||||||||||||||||
Kyiv, Ukraine. A fierce fight in Ukraine`s parliament sent at least six lawmakers to the hospital with concussions, a fractured jaw and multiple bruises, setting a new low for the often-tumultuous body. Ambulances rushed to parliament late Thursday after lawmakers from President Viktor Yanukovych`s Party of Regions stormed the parliament podium, which was occupied by opposition allies of former premier Yulia Tymoshenko. The pro-presidential lawmakers threw fists and chairs at their opponents. Pro-Tymoshenko legislators had been blocking legislative work all day, protesting a corruption probe against her.
