SLAVYANSK (AFP) - Pro-Moscow rebels in the east Ukraine town of Slavyansk declared a curfew there on Sunday, after a gun battle with unidentified attackers killed two militants.
The self-styled separatist leader of the town, Vyacheslav Ponomaryov, told reporters that "the curfew comes into effect today - from midnight (2100 GMT) to 6am (0300 GMT)," during which time it would be forbidden to be in the streets.
