KIEV (Reuters) - Three Ukrainian servicemen have been killed and four others wounded in attacks by pro-Russian separatists in the east over the past 24 hours, Ukraine's military spokesman said on Monday.

Violence has fallen off in Ukraine's east since a ceasefire was brokered in the Belarussian capital of Minsk in February but government forces and rebels accuse one another of violations, with almost daily casualties.
