Workers of "Illich Iron & Steel Works" factory gather together during an anti-war rally in Mariupol, eastern Ukraine, Tuesday, May 20, 2014. Ukrainian metals tycoon Rinat Akhmetov, riding a wave of public dismay with the fighting, issued a strong call against the mutiny in the east, which he described as a “fight against the citizens of our region” that has devastated Ukraine’s industrial heartland. Last week, his company organized citizen patrols of steelworkers who worked alongside police in Mariupol to improve security. The move forced insurgents to vacate the government buildings they had seized in the key Black Sea port. (AP Photo/Evgeniy Maloletka)
