A march under the flags of the Unified Union of Patriots of Ukraine, a non-governmental organization, is taking place in central Kyiv.

Some 500 people formed a column in Khreschatyk Street at around noon on Monday, an Interfax-Ukraine correspondent reported from the scene. To the tunes of patriotic music, members of the organization moved towards Independence Square and then proceeded down the Alley of the Heavenly Hundred Heroes towards the presidential office in Bankova Street.

Some activists have been occasionally chanting slogans: "Glory to Ukraine – to Heroes the Glory!" and "Glory to the Nation - Death to Enemies!"

There is a heavy police presence to maintain public order.

Meanwhile, events commemorating the Heavenly Hundred Heroes continue in the center of Kyiv. Memorial services are being held at the sites where protesters were shot dead, and people keep bringing flowers.

Overall, the situation in the city center is quiet, the Interfax-Ukraine correspondent said.
