The European Union has agreed to impose sanctions on those responsible for the mounting violence in Ukraine. The decision was taken after dozens of people were killed in the capital Kiev on the bloodiest day since protests against President Viktor Yanukovych began in November. He's been holding talks with three EU ministers. With the details, here's Mattew Price in Brussels.

Galvanized into action by the violence on the ground. Ministers went further, they will freeze the assets of those they deem to be responsible for human rights violations and restrict their travel to the EU. Exactly who will be on that list will be worked out in the coming days, but it will focus on Ukrainian government officials. Meanwhile, in Kiev, the German, French and Polish foreign ministers held lengthy meetings with both the president and opposition officials. It is clear they are working on some kind of settlement that would see both sides pull back.

We know that the protesters blamed the riot police for those deaths.”

“我们不时地听到巨大的爆炸声，可能是有人开枪了，于是我们转移到别处来撤离。早些时候，有尸体被送到酒店大堂，然后这里就成了临时医院，人们排队到独立广场，高呼‘英雄’，我们知道今天有很多伤亡发生，我们知道抗议者指责防暴警察造成了这些死亡。”

German police have arrested three old men who are thought to have been guards of the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz. The men aged 88, 92 and 94 were detained at a prison hospital in the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg, accused of being accessories to murder.

Two years ago, a court trying the former death camp guard John Demjanjuk, decided that he was guilty of being an accessory to murder simply by being a worker at the camp. This meant that the court didn't have to prove an active participation in killing to find someone guilty of murder. That open the way for more prosecutions. And today's raids are the results. At least three of those arrested were alleged to have been guards at Auschwitz between 1942 and 1945 when 1.5 million people were killed in what amounted to an industrial system of murder.

两年前，一家法院审判了前集中营警卫约翰·德米扬鲁克，只因他曾在集中营工作而判定他为谋杀从犯。这意味着法院要认定某人有谋杀罪，没有必要证明其参与谋杀。这就为进行更多检举打开大门，今天的搜捕就是其结果。据悉被捕者中至少三人曾在1942年到1945年间在奥施维茨做过看守，在当时进行的系统谋杀中，有150万人被杀。
