Rebels accuse Poroshenko of breaking peace deal Pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine have accused President Petro Poroshenko of scrapping a deal aimed at halting months of war. The accusations come after Mr Poroshenko responded to calls to cancel partial autonomy granted to two eastern regions as part of a ceasefire agreement. The Ukrainian president and Western countries say a rebel vote held in the east last week violated the Minsk deal. He has ordered reinforcements to key cities in case of a rebel offensive. Source: GBC
