Molotov Cocktail petrol bombs on stand-by at the protester barricades on Grushevsky Street, Kiev. Many hundreds of Molotov cocktails have been thrown at riot police over the weeks of Euromaidan anti-government violent clashes. The Euromaidan was a wave of on-going demonstrations and protests in Ukraine, which began on the night of 21 November 2013 with very large public protests demanding closer European integration. The scope of the protests evolved with the eventual resignation of President Yanukovych and his government.
