BBC: Ukraine says it cannot start heavy weapons withdrawal



The Ukrainian military has said it cannot start withdrawing heavy weapons from the front line in the east until the rebels stop shelling its positions.


Military spokesman Lt Col Anatoliy Stelmakh told reporters the rebels had not stopped firing.


Both sides agreed at the weekend to begin withdrawing heavy weapons shortly, under this month's ceasefire.


Two Ukrainian soldiers died on Sunday, the military said, while the rebels reported one death on their side.
