The Ukrainian government says its forces have retaken two more eastern cities from pro-Russian rebels.
The website of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said the national flag was raised in Artyomivsk and Druzhkivka.
It comes a day after government forces regained control of the rebel stronghold of Sloviansk.
Meanwhile, large crowds have attended a rally in the regional capital, Donetsk, in support of the rebels.
Rebel fighters have re-grouped in Donetsk and are reported to have attacked the state prison guard headquarters in an attempt to seize weapons.
