12 Dead as Combatants Defy E. Ukraine Cease-Fire


At least 12 people have been killed in eastern Ukraine where fighting between government forces and pro-Russian separatists continues despite a cease-fire that was declared earlier this month.

A Ukrainian military spokesman says nine soldiers were killed when their armored vehicle was attacked Sunday, while the government of Donetsk said at least three civilians were killed in the rebel-controlled city earlier in the day.

Another 32 people were wounded; the highest number of casualties reported since the cease-fire took effect on September 5.

At least 3,500 people have been killed since the fighting began in April.
