The Ukrainian military on Sunday said its forces had rebuffed an assault by Russian-backed rebels, and reclaimed almost all the territory of Donetsk airport in eastern Ukraine that was lost in recent weeks, after Kiev rushed tanks to the battle lines in a “massive operation” overnight.
Ukrainian officials reported at least six people were killed, including four soldiers. They said roads were closed, a bridge was destroyed, houses were demolished, and electricity was cut to housing complexes and businesses, as rocket and artillery fire exploded across the Donetsk region.
