Russia pounds rebel-claimed region, Ukraine pushes back

Russia redoubled its push for Ukraine's eastern Donbas region Wednesday, with the Ukrainian military claiming to have rebuffed some advances as shelling killed at least eight civilians in the area over the past 24 hours and wounded 25. Pro-Russia separatists said Ukrainian attacks killed four civilians on their side of the front.
