Terrorists took editor-in-chief of "Vecherniy Donetsk" to undisclosed location

In Donetsk, camouflaged men armed with automatic rifles entered the publishing house "Donetchyna" and blocked the editorial office of the newspaper "Vecherniy Donetsk"; they told the staff not to use computers or phones. A lot of these men did not look like they were local. The armed men demanded a meeting with its editor-in-chief, Leonid Lapa, and took him to an undisclosed location.

The newspaper "Vecherniy Donetsk" belongs to a media holding owned by Rinat Akhmetov’s company SKM.
