(9 Jun 2015) Heavy fighting broke out on Tuesday around Donetsk's airport between Ukrainian government troops and separatist rebels, amid fears that eastern Ukraine was about to fall back into full-scale war.
A leader of the international monitoring group called last week for resumed negotiations between the warring sides.
Alexander Hug, the deputy chief monitor of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe's (OSCE) mission in Ukraine told the UN Security Council that OSCE monitors have noted the movement and presence of heavy weapons, and their use, in areas where they are prohibited by the ceasefire agreement signed in the Belarus capital Minsk in February.
Since fighting erupted in eastern Ukraine between government forces and pro-Russian separatists in April 2014, more than 6,400 people have been killed.
The February ceasefire has been violated almost daily, but hostilities had tapered off after the agreement until last Wednesday's heavy fighting near Donetsk which was the most severe in months.
