The Ukrainian military retreated Wednesday night and are not within what remains of the airport.
This is a blow to the Ukrainian authorities who had already lost Lugansk Airport, the main town of the neighboring breakaway region from that of Donetsk.
This loss comes after new charges of Kiev under which Russian troops entered the eastern Ukraine and after renewed fighting and violence.
In Donetsk, at least thirteen civilians were killed Thursday in the bombing of a trolleybus stop. Usually, this area is untouched by the fire.
This bloody bombing took place in the morning hours after the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Russian, French and German have called for a cessation of hostilities and the withdrawal of heavy weapons.
A call that has not been heard. In 24 hours, forty people at least, the victims of Donetsk died, indicated Thursday afternoon AFP based on official sources.
NATO stressed that the fighting had intensified to the point of return to the level before the cease-fire agreement in the Minsk agreements and in some cases beyond.
"It is clear that Russia must stop supporting separatists and respect international law," said the chairman of the Military Committee of NATO.
