The rebel-held city of Donetsk held a city-wide clean-up day on
Friday after months of shelling in eastern Ukraine, sending prisoners
out to help remove the debris.
The city council said one person was killed by overnight shelling in a neighbourhood in the north of the city, where fighting centered around the government-held airport has spilled over into residential areas.
But the streets were quiet Friday as the rebels carried out their clean-up.
In one school that was shelled in late August, four Ukrainian prisoners guarded by armed rebels swept up debris.
Peace talks to regulate the ongoing crisis in east Ukraine, where pro-Russian separatists have battled Ukrainian troops since April, started late Friday in the capital of Belarus.
