Violence persisted in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk on September 16, after clashes in recent days broke a tenuous ceasefire between government forces and separatist militias in the region. A bus was reportedly shelled in the Petrovsky district, while the Kievskyi district of the separatist controlled city was especially hard hit earlier in the week. A local market was reported to have gone up in flames, as seen in this video.In this footage, the videographer, freelance journalist Maximilian Clarke, can be seen running for shelter in the Kievskyi district as artillery is heard.
