In the Luhansk sector, militants fired upon and tried to advance to government-controlled territories by Novotoshkivske. Power supply to the outskirts of Popasna and several adjacent villages has been suspended due to the militant artillery shelling. Militant groups also fired at Stanytsia Luhanska, Stary Aidar, Krymske and Zolote.<\/p>\n

Most of armed incidents occurred in the Donetsk sector where militants used mortars, grenade launchers, tanks, infantry combat vehicles and small arms. Western outskirts of Horlivka, airport area, Maryinka, Krasnohorivka and Avdiivka have been the epicenters of fighting.<\/p>\n

Ukrainian Armed Forces did not incur any lethal casualties; five servicemen got wounded in action in the last 24 hours.<\/p>\n

According to Colonel Lysenko, Mikhail Yemelyanov, Deputy Head of Faction Russia\u2019s Spravedlivaya Rossiya [Just Russia Party] of the State Duma, stated that political authorities of the Russia\u2019s Rostov region would provide all kinds of support to militants of the so-called \u201cDPR\u201d and \u201cLPR\u201d. Col. Lysenko commented: \u201cWith such statements the deputy shares responsibility of the Russian authorities for fueling the war in eastern Ukraine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ukraine\u2019s Security Service detained three informants of Russia-backed militant groups. Two of them \u2013residents of Velyka Novosilka of the Donetsk region \u2013 gained nom-de-guerres Brat Nelson [Brother Nelson] and Stary Grek [Old Greek]. They were recruited by the so-called \u201cDPR\u201d militant with a nom-de-guerre Smith.
