The incident in question was Sunday:

Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine have continued military operations against government forces. On February 8, separatist forces in the town of Vuhlehirsk, near Debaltseve, were filmed by RFE/RL's Current Time program firing missiles from a Grad rocket launcher. The Ukrainian military said on January 29 that its troops had retreated from Vuhlehirsk and the town has suffered huge damage in recent fighting.
