Chanting “shame” and “go away mob,” Ukraine’s anti-government protesters rallied in the capital Kiev, as opposition leaders called for more protests.

While President Viktor Yanukovych said in a website statement he is returning to work tomorrow after an illness, the opposition seeks to repeal next week an amnesty law passed by pro-government lawmakers. Vitali Klitschko, the leader of the opposition UDAR party, asked Ukrainians to picket their regional government buildings tomorrow in a show of force across the east European nation.
