SHYROKYNE, Ukraine — Fighting raged overnight and in the early hours on Tuesday on the outskirts of the rebel stronghold of Donetsk in eastern Ukraine despite an agreement reached by the Ukrainian and Russian foreign ministers a day earlier.

Fighting in the east had largely subsided following a cease-fire deal signed in February but has rekindled in recent days.
