Ukraine sends small prepayment for Russian gas


KIEV/KRASNOYARSK, Russia (Reuters) - Ukraine has sent a small prepayment of $15 million (9.5 million pounds) to Russia for March natural gas deliveries, energy officials from the two sides said on Friday, after Moscow threatened to cut off supply.

In their latest dispute, Ukraine and Russia have argued over who should pay for Russian gas sent to two rebel-held areas of eastern Ukraine after supply from Kiev was cut off.
