At least two Ukrainian military helicopters landed in an airfield near the flashpoint city of Slavyansk on Tuesday with reinforcements for an ongoing push into the separatist-held city, witness told AFP.

The helicopters landed in a military airfield in the town of Kramatorsk, about 15 kilometres (nine miles) south of Slavyansk, where pro-Kremlin militias have occupied government buildings since Saturday.
