The ceasefire in Ukraine appears to be holding despite occasional shelling and gunfire close to a flashpoint town in the country's east.

Artillery and mortar fire has been heard around Debaltseve, a strategically important town on the frontline of the fight between Ukrainian troops and pro-Russian separatists.

The guns fell silent early on Sunday morning as a ceasefire agreement came into effect.

The agreement was reached following talks in the Belarus capital Minsk, led by France and Germany.

Pro-Russian rebels indicated that they would not observe the truce at Debaltseve, where Ukrainian forces have been largely surrounded.
