A part of the mortar shell is seen in front of a sign that reads 'Slovyansk', after heavy fighting between pro-Russian fighters and Ukrainian government troops just outside Slovyansk, eastern Ukraine, Wednesday, July 9, 2014. The eastern Ukrainian city of Slovyansk was occupied by pro-Russian separatists for months in 2014. Now its people are preparing to defend their community again as the fighting draws closer and invites a major battle. Slovyansk is a city of splintered loyalties, with some residents antagonistic toward Kyiv or nostalgic for their Soviet past. (AP Photo/Evgeniy Maloletka, File)
