Reporter:
Heavy fighting is reportedly taking place at the airport in the embattled eastern Ukranian city of Donestk.
Reports from the ground are suggesting fighter jets are involved in the clashes between Ukranian security forces and armed anti-government activists.
The fresh round of fighting comes with confirmation that confectionary tycoon Petro Poroshenko has won an outright victory in Sunday's presidential election.
The Ukrainian electoral commission has announced that the 48-year-old won in the first round.
Mykhaylo Okhendovsky is the chairman of central election commission.

"Already at this point we can make a very important conclusion - there is no need for a second round of voting. The new president of Ukraine was elected on May 25th, 2014. After all the necessary legal procedures are completed, presidential candidate Petro Poroshenko will become the new president."
Authorities say with 70 percent of the vote counted, Poroshenko has over 53 percent of the vote, followed by ex-prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko with 13 percent.
As the president-elect, Poroshenko has promised to quickly bring the crisis in his country to an end.

"Very soon we will see more effectiveness in the anti-terrorist operation. The anti-terrorist operation cannot and will not take two or three months, it should take hours."
Meanwhile, Poroshenko says Kiev will address the concerns of local in eastern regions and provide assurances on people' rights, including the use of the Russian language on an official level.
The largely Russian-speaking regions of Donetsk and Luhansk declared independence after Crimea joined Russia in March.
Previously, Kiev and Moscow blamed each other for the unrest in the regions.
On the relationship with Russia, Poroshenko expresses he will meet Russian leaders in the first half of June, adding that restoring stability in the eastern region will require Moscow's involvement.
Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov reiterated that Russia will respect the will of the Ukrainian people and is ready for talks with Poroshenko.

"We constantly call for real dialogue between those who hold power in Kiev and all Ukraine's regions. We are convinced that this is key to the resolution of the deepest crisis of the Ukrainian statehood that we have seen. As the president Putin said a few times, we are ready for dialogue with Kiev representatives, we are also ready for dialogue with Petro Poroshenko."
The Chinese Foreign Ministry also says China respects the Ukrainian people's choice in the election and hopes that all sides can settle the crisis through political dialogue.
The election comes three months after former President Viktor Yanukovych fled Kiev amid street protests calling for closer ties with the EU.
The inauguration of the new Ukrainian president is expected in mid-June.
