MORE:
Apparently this field was a rally area for both the 79th, and 24th brigades.

Other Reports:

The Col. in charge of retaking the ATO-area border posts, Col. Igor Momot, was killed, along with his entire entourage, in an ambush.

Attacks on Donetsk airport have started again today. Yesterday, the UK troops repelled the attack, but lost several of their heavy pieces. They are dug in around the tower area, and the fuel farm, both of which have large earth berms around them.

Vostok is defending the approaches to the airport, and they are heavily mined, so getting them any help will be difficult.

Kiev did manage to part of an airdrop in to them this morning. They dropped two pallets from a high altitude. One fell on the airport, one did not. Video of the drop. http://youtu.be/xy-3HsjQNGM

Another attack aircraft was shot down near Perevalsk, adding to the the two SU-25’s claimed yesterday near Seversk.

The rebels have gotten a LOT more active in the last two days.

EXCELLENT map of the tactical situation in the Rebellion areas. Note how vunerable the Kiev units moving in the South are? The red star marks where the battle was that is mentioned above.
