Ukraine troops retreat from key town Debaltseve
The Ukrainian president says his forces are making an “organised” withdrawal from the embattled town of Debaltseve.
Petro Poroshenko said 80% of Ukraine’s troops left on Wednesday morning, with more to follow.
Fighting has raged over the transport hub, with pro-Russian rebels seizing control of most areas, despite a ceasefire deal.
Russia’s foreign minister said Ukrainian forces had been encircled and were forced to battle their way out.

Obama tells Poroshenko of ‘deep concern’ over Ukraine violence
US President Barack Obama called his Ukrainian counterpart Petro Poroshenko on Saturday to express his “deep concern” and “sympathy” over spiraling violence as a ceasefire came into force in eastern Ukraine.
“The president spoke with Ukrainian President Poroshenko today to express his sympathy for the mounting toll of the conflict in eastern Ukraine and his deep concern about the ongoing violence, particularly in and around Debaltseve,” a White House statement said.
Another US government foreign policy disaster. If we are in the birth pangs of World War III, what are you doing to prepare? Did you know that 223 ammunition has gone up over 10% in the past week?
