Death of third National Guard serviceman not confirmed - Avakov
Ukrainian Interior Minister Arsen Avakov has refuted his earlier report on the death of a third National Guard serviceman of injuries.
"Datsiuk has pulled through! He is alive! The report was premature. As of now, two are dead, 130 are wounded, including six severely," Avakov wrote on Facebook.
The minister wrote several minutes earlier that National Guard solider Bohdan Datsiuk died at the Interior Ministry hospital.
Earlier on Tuesday Avakov reported on Facebook the death of National Guard serviceman Dmytro Slastikov.
The death of National Guard soldier Ihor Debrin in hospital was reported on Monday.
Hence, the Monday clashes near the Verkhovna Rada took the lives of two National Guard servicemen.
