EU Mulls More Russia Sanctions as Ukraine Rebels Fight On

European Union states may expand a list of Russians facing sanctions over the crisis in Ukraine as soon as tomorrow, as rebels seized a new town after retreating from eastern strongholds to bigger population centers last week.

Several hundred rebels seized Popasnaya, a city of 20,000 people in the Luhansk region, news service Interfax reported, citing the rebels. They also seized a military enlistment office in the city of Luhansk itself, Interfax said, after shifting a main force of thousands of soldiers to the provincial capital of Donetsk on Saturday, according to people in the city.
