France says worried by Ukraine ceasefire violations


PARIS (Reuters) - France expressed concern on Monday over increased violations of a ceasefire agreement in eastern Ukraine between Kiev's forces and pro-Russian separatists and urged both sides to cooperate with international monitors in the area.

The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) is monitoring implementation of the ceasefire in a conflict that has killed more than 9,000 people since April 2014. Last month the OSCE said it wanted the two sides to pull further apart along the line of contact.
