Unverified video purporting to show the battle has emerged

Hundreds of separatists in eastern Ukraine have mounted an assault on a border command centre near the city of Luhansk, the border agency says.

It says five militants were killed and eight wounded when the centre came under sustained attack. Seven border guards are said to have been wounded.

A Ukrainian military aircraft has been despatched to support the centre.

Meanwhile, Russia's Gazprom has given Ukraine more time to settle its gas bill after receiving a part payment.

The energy company had previously threatened to halt shipments of gas unless Ukraine paid its bill in full and agreed in future to pay in advance.

On Monday a spokesman for Ukraine's border agency, Oleh Slobodyan, said hundreds of militants had attacked the border centre with heavy weapons.

The agency says fighting is continuing and that the attackers are firing from residential buildings, which makes it difficult for Ukrainian troops to respond.

For weeks, Russian-speaking eastern Ukraine has been the scene of deadly clashes between government troops and pro-Russian insurgents who have taken over key buildings across the region.
