Residents Of Ilovaisk, Ukraine Residents Cope With Battered City As Fragile Cease Fire Remains

ILOVAISK, UKRAINE - SEPTEMBER 12: A woman pauses in a basement bomb shelter where she has spent much of the past few weeks in Ilovaisk, which has endured weeks of heavy fighting recently on September 12, 2014 in Ilovaisk, Ukraine. Ilovaisk, which is about an hour outside of the separatist held city of Donetsk, saw sustained shelling in August and is still the site of fighting between Ukrainian troops and the Russian backed separatists. Despite a declared ceasefire between separatists forces and the Ukrainian military, tensions on the ground are still high throughout the east of the country. Sporadic shelling is heard in Donetsk daily and gunfire in the port city of Mariupol. The city of Donetsk has only around 300,000 people remaining out of a population of 900,000 due to the fighting.
