Fighting raged in Ukraine’s Donetsk region Monday, bringing further unrest following the downing of a Malaysia Airlines plane Thursday that left 298 people dead. Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko later ordered a cease-fire within a 25-mile radius of the crash site, as a team of international monitors arrived to survey the wreckage, though the crash zone was under control of rebel forces rather than Poroshenko's government.
More than 270 bodies have been recovered at the crash site, Ukraine authorities said, with the hope of transporting the bodies to Amsterdam. The bodies have been loaded onto a refrigerated train. But the train has not moved -- and their ultimate destination remains in dispute.
