The enemy violated the Complex of Additional Measures for the ceasefire enhancement and control 21 times this week, spokesman for the DPR PMD Oleg Nikitin reported at the briefing in Donetsk on November 27.
In violation of Clause 2 of the Additional Measures, the enemy carried out 12 provocations with the use of weapons in the direction of Spartak, Kominternovo, Leninskoye and the village of Gagarin Mine in Gorlovka. During the firing, militants used anti-tank missile systems, grenade launchers and small arms.
During the shelling of the Leninskoye area, militants from the 36th brigade’s marine battalion were adjusting mortar fire by using a Mavic UAV, which was jammed by a Terikon-M2N EW station, after which the firing ended. Jamming the enemy UAV in time made it possible to avoid civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure.
In addition, our surveillance cameras recorded nine cases when Ukrainian militants carried out engineer work at positions in the areas of Shumy, Peski, Vodyanoe, Dzerzhinsk, Maryinka and Leninskoye in violation of Clause 1 of the truce.
In the past 24 hours, militants from the 79th brigade’s 3rd airborne assault battalion, in violation of Clause 2 of the Additional Measures, fired ten rounds with a grenade machine gun and used small arms in the area of the village of Trudovskaya Mine.
In addition, for the first time since the additional measures came into effect, militants from the 56th brigade’s 37th motorized infantry battalion fired twelve 120mm mortar shells at Vesyoloye from their positions in the Opytnoye area.
