Ukraine today reported the death of four soldiers in clashes with pro-Russian rebels that came only hours ahead of fresh talks on ending the 15-month separatist revolt.

The two sides and Russia today launched a fresh round of European-mediated negotiations in the Belarussian capital Minsk that hope to salvage a largely-ignored ceasefire and political reconciliation agreement signed nearly six months ago.
