As UNIAN reported earlier, Azov members blocked all doors leading into the office building. According to Azov members, they brought with them those objects used by unidentified men as weapons to attack activists who opposed the disputed construction.

In turn, journalist Anna Nedogibchenko wrote on Facebook that Azov members were not allowing the firm's employees to enter the office building. Further, smoke bombs were thrown and fighting was reported to have broken out.

Prior to the incident, on September 8, there was a clash between local residents supported by Azov and men who guarded the construction site in Kyiv's Svyatoshyn district.

Injuries were reported following the clash.
