It was a post-notification that used historical geo-information like who was in a particular cell tower's coverage area. It only came out before the law enacted to counter what is going on kicked in. A man was shot and killed a few hours ago by Kiev police[1]. Now an APC is deployed[2] while both police[3] and protestors[4] trade Molotovs.

Here is a live feed of the scene, which is essentially an on-going street battle now[5].

edit: Video of the police scuffling with citizens in the street during the man's shooting then dragging his body away, along with an interview with the man that filmed it was submitted and published by the BBC[1].

Wow, currently there are fires made by protesters. Not sure if the police is on the other side receiving the smoke from the fire.

It's probably more to stop the police from moving in a line than to smoke them out.
