Armed pro-Russian militiants get down from a truck to take position in eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk  on May 6, 2014, the day after heavy fightings between pro-Russian militiants and Ukranian troops killed at least 34 people near the eastern Ukranian city of Slavyansk. The death toll from a military offensive in a flashpoint town in east Ukraine rose to at least 34, officials said today, amid fresh warnings of civil war and the shutdown of a major airport in the region.
