The eastern Ukrainian village of Semenovka has been reduced to rubble by recent shelling. Ukraine said on Wednesday it was confident of receiving further aid under a $17 billion IMF bailout but appealed to Western institutions and donors for further cash and credit to rebuild the east, shattered by separatist conflict.
