The EU's foreign policy chief threw her support on Wednesday behind a call for a temporary truce in the eastern Ukrainian town of Debaltseve to allow for the evacuation of civilians. The current chairman of the pan-European rights and security group OSCE called this week for an immediate three-day truce in the Debaltseve area, where fierce fighting between rebels and Ukrainian soldiers has been raging. “I join the call by the OSCE chairperson-in-office on all actors in and around the Debaltseve area to establish a local temporary truce for a minimum of three days, taking immediate effect,” the EU's Federica Mogherini said in a statement. “Civilians need to be able to leave the conflict zone safely.” Shell hits Donetsk hospital A shell hit a hospital in the east Ukrainian rebel-controlled city of Donetsk on Tuesday and dead and injured were feared, the city administration said. "There was an artillery shell at 12 noon ... The shell hit a hospital, there are dead and wounded,'' a statement on the administration's website said.
