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.

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