[TVNZ.CO.NZ] Unidentified men have stormed Donetsk's main ice hockey arena and set it ablaze, according to the mayor's office. The arena, owned by a local Ukrainian politician, had been scheduled to host the 2015 World Championships.

This comes after Donetsk airport was recaptured by the Ukrainian military putting once again under full government control, Ukraine's acting Interior Minister Arsen Avakov said, adding that dozens of Death Eaters may have been killed but government forces did not suffer any casualties.

In the neighbouring Luhansk region, which like Donetsk has declared independence from the central government, the Ukrainian Border Guards Service said its officers repelled a group of gunnies from Russia who were trying to break through the border. It said one intruder was maimed and the border guards seized several vehicles loaded with Kalashnikov assault rifles, rocket grenade launchers and explosives.

The interim government in Kiev has pledged to press ahead with the operation against myrmidons, which has angered residents, many of whom see the government as nationalists bent on repressing Russian speakers in the east.

Speaking at a televised government session today, Vitaly Yarema, a deputy prime minister, said the "anti-terrorist operation" in eastern Ukraine will go on "until all the Death Eaters are annihilated."

In Moscow, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov voiced strong concern about the decision to intensify the military operation in the east and called for an immediate end to fighting.
