Recently engagments between Ukranian soldiers and insurgants has continued at the Dontesk Airport.  On May 26th insurgants took control of the airport however it was quickly reclaimed by the Ukranian military.  The airport holds a great strategic importance to both sides and several armored units of the “Dontesk Peoples Republic” has been seen making its way towards the airport.  Fighting has been nearly continuous since the insurgants lost control and seven Ukranian soldiers were killed a few days ago when insurgants attacked their transport vehicle.  Even though the airport has not been in use since the beginning of the fighting the airport allows the Ukranian military to maintain a strong foothold in Dontesk and its surrounding area.  In addition to this it prevents Russian troops and other insurgants from using the airport as a base of operations.  I personally believe that this article alone shows how despite the lack of coverage by western media that there is still a great deal of fighting that is going on in Ukraine.
