 Editor-in-chief at Vesti Mass Media Ltd Oksana Omelchenko has said that Ukrainian law enforcers are raiding the premises of the media holding's office in Kyiv, seizing things.

"Well, it all began! At around 06.00, they surrounded Gulliver. Such 'lovely' people are coming to our floor. Colleagues from Radio [Vesti] say that the sound is as if they began to destroy everything," she wrote on her Facebook page early on Thursday.

Omelchenko also posted a black-and-white shot from a video surveillance camera installed at the entrance to the office, showing Ukrainian law enforcers in the corridor.

"Law enforcers do not allow journalists to work. Of course, they will prevent law enforcers from destroying and stealing our things. They are already taking them away and breaking the doors with crowbars and circular saws," she said.
