Oleg Boldyrev reports from inside the presidential complex
Ukrainian protesters have been able to enter the president's official and residential buildings in Kiev, after they were abandoned by police.
They have not gone into the offices themselves - stationing their own guards outside entrances. Police say they support the people.
President Viktor Yanukovych's aides say he is in Kharkhiv, close to Russia.
They have called for elections before 25 May, not the end of December as envisaged in Friday's peace deal.

Duncan Crawford@_DuncanC: Lines of protesters - all in hard helmets, some of them armed with sticks - now guard the road outside the president's office.
This is where President Yanukovych and his staff normally work. All the doors are locked. There are a few security guards. Relaxed, smiling but not jubilant, protesters here say they want to restore order and avoid provocation, to bring life back to normal.

Despite the EU-mediated agreement, thousands of people have remained on the streets of Kiev.
As parliament met on Saturday morning, its speaker Volodymyr Rybak resigned, citing ill health.
He has been replaced by Oleksandr Turchynov, an ally of jailed opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko.
Vitaly Klitschko, leader of the opposition Udar party, told MPs: "We must, as the people demand, adopt a resolution calling on Yanukovych to immediately resign."
Presidential aide Hanna Herman said Mr Yanukovych had travelled to Kharkiv in the east, close to the Russian border, from where he was to give a televised address.
A gathering of deputies from the south-east and Crimea - traditionally Russian-leaning areas - is taking place there, but Ms Herman said the president had "no intention" of attending.
"As much as some people want it, he has no intention to leave the country," she said.
'He's not here'
The protests first erupted in late November when Mr Yanukovych rejected a landmark association and trade deal with the EU in favour of closer ties with Russia.
On Thursday, police opened fire on protesters who have been occupying Independence Square in central Kiev. The health ministry said 77 people - both protesters and police - have been killed since Tuesday.
For a second day, funerals are being held in the square.

Our correspondent says there is no sign of security forces inside the previously heavily guarded presidential complex and that journalists and protesters were able to enter freely.
"He's not here, none of his officials or anyone linked directly to the administration are here," said Ostap Kryvdyk, a protest leader, referring to the president.
The protesters said they were protecting the buildings from looting and vandalism.
Correspondents say police appear to have abandoned posts across the city, while the numbers gathered in Independence Square - known as the Maidan - are growing.
In a statement, the interior ministry said the police force was "at the service of the people and completely shares its aspirations for rapid changes".
"We pay homage to the dead," it added.

The political pact was signed on Friday by President Yanukovych and opposition leaders after mediation by EU foreign ministers.
It says a unity government will be formed and elections held by the end of the year, but the opposition say this is not soon enough.
The deal has been met with scepticism by some of the thousands of protesters who remain in the square. Opposition leaders who signed it were booed and called traitors.
The agreement, published by the German foreign ministry, includes the following:
  • The 2004 constitution will be restored within 48 hours and a national unity government will be formed within 10 days
  • Constitutional reform balancing the powers of president, government and parliament will be started immediately and completed by September
  • A presidential election will be held after the new constitution is adopted but no later than December 2014, and new electoral laws will be passed
  • An investigation into recent acts of violence will be conducted under joint monitoring from the authorities, the opposition and the Council of Europe
  • The authorities will not impose a state of emergency and both the authorities and the opposition will refrain from the use of violence
  • Both parties will undertake serious efforts for the normalisation of life in the cities and villages by withdrawing from administrative and public buildings and unblocking streets, city parks and squares
  • Illegal weapons will be handed over to interior ministry bodies
The US and Russian presidents have agreed that the deal needs to be swiftly implemented, officials say.

Ukraine's main opposition figures

  • Vitaly Klitschko - former boxer who leads the Ukrainian Democratic Alliance for Reforms (or Udar, meaning "Punch"). Previously rejected offer of deputy PM's role
  • Oleh Tyahnybok - leader of the far-right Svoboda (Freedom) party
  • Arseniy Yatsenyuk - leader of Fatherland, Ukraine's second-largest party. Previously ran for president and has turned down offer of prime minister's role
  • Yulia Tymoshenko - former leader of Fatherland, in jail for abuse of power in what her allies say was an attempt to silence her
Russia's Vladimir Putin told Barack Obama in a telephone conversation on Friday that Russia wants to be part of the implementation process, a US State Department spokesperson said.
Shortly after the deal was signed, Ukraine's parliament approved the restoration of the 2004 constitution, which reduces the powers of the president.
All but one of the 387 MPs present voting in favour, including dozens of MPs from Mr Yanukovych's own Party of Regions.
Parliament also approved an amnesty for protesters accused of involvement in violence, and for a change in the law which could lead to the release for Mrs Tymoshenko.
