Victory Day Doesn't Bring Peace to Ukraine as 20 Die in Fighting

While most of Eastern Europe and Russia celebrated Friday as Victory Day, marking the end of WWII, violence continued in Ukraine.

Fighting killed at least twenty people in Mariupol, Ukraine, on Friday.

Most of the dead were separatist forces who had occupied the city's police station.

Ukrainian military forces are continuing to step up their actions against the separatists, who have refused to lay down their arms and end their occupations of government buildings.
