乌克兰临时总理呼吁解救更多人质
Ukraine's interim Prime Minister, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, has urged the Ukrainian security service to accelerate their efforts to free more hostages being held by anti-government activists. Yatsenyuk made the remark at a Kiev airport, where a German government plane was set to depart for Berlin with freed military observers on board.

Yatsenyuk said some other Ukrainian officers are still being captured by activists, and that negotiations are ongoing. He added that the only way to rescue Ukraine was through reconciliation and peace.
Meanwhile, Moscow says the release of the observers shows the "bravery and humanism" of those defending the city of Slavyansk. But US Secretary of State John Kerry and Germany’s Foreign Minister have said Russia should still do more to help de-escalate the crisis.
