As pro-Russian separatists made advances against Ukrainian forces near Donetsk, residents of the southeastern port city of Mariupol some 100 kilometers from the provincial capital took part in combat training offered by members of Ukraine's Azov volunteer battalion. Trainees said they were prepared to wage a "partisan war" if the rebel forces were to reach their city. (RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service)
