The buildings of the Crimean Council of Ministers and the Crimean parliament have been seized by 120 unknown professionally trained individuals with automatic weapons, former Crimean Prime Minister and UDAR MP Serhiy Kunitsyn has said.
"Tonight - I'm on the phone with Crimea all night - more than 120 armed men entered the Crimean Supreme Council and the Crimean government. These professionally trained people are armed. They brought weapons - automatic weapons, grenade launchers, and machine guns," he said, while speaking from the rostrum of the Verkhovna Rada on Thursday.
