Ukraine says up to 200 rebels killed in Donetsk airport fighting

Ukraine's military said its forces killed as many as 200 rebels in fighting in Donetsk as dozens of tanks and other military vehicles crossed the border into Ukraine from Russia.

"Russia continues to supply manpower and military vehicles to Ukraine's Donbas," Lysenko said. "Yesterday, 32 tanks, 16 howitzers, and 30 trucks with ammunition and manpower crossed the border from Russia" into the conflict-torn Luhansk region. Andrei Bobrun, a Russian Defence Ministry spokesman, wouldn't immediately comment.
