Sporadic shelling between pro-Russian separatists and the Ukranian army continues around the government held airport in Donetsk.

Despite the occasional outbreaks of violence it appears the fragile ceasefire still holds.

Once again it is the civilian population that are the victims of the carnage.

“The most important thing is that we want to live in a quiet city. We just want to live like we did before, not like this,” said one young Donetsk resident.

The Ukrainian government claims a separatist rocket attack on a town close to the airport killed ten people and injured dozens.
