According to the\u00a0Chief Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, a powerful computer appliance was brought to Donetsk\u00a0for the purposes of limiting online access of inhabitants of temporarily occupied territories to Ukrainian mass media,\u00a0in order to hold\u00a0cyber attacks making it impossible to access such internet resources.\u00a0\u201cColonel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Sergey\u00a0Mikhailovih\u00a0Fedchenko\u00a0is personally responsible for holding similar acts of cyber\u00a0terrorism,\u201d said Col.\u00a0Motuzyanyk. Moreover, according to the recent intelligence, \u201cartificial interruption of water supply to the\u00a0inhabitatns\u00a0of the temporarily occupied territories in\u00a0Luhansk\u00a0region has been planned as a part of Russian information campaign on\u00a0discrediting members of OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to blame the SMM observers for ignoring humanitarian problems\u201d. \u201cMayor of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation\u00a0Dmitriy\u00a0Vladimirovich\u00a0Fedin\u00a0is personally responsible for organization of the said action and spreading information on the occupied territories,\u201d added the spokesman.<\/p>\n

Law enforcements detained an informant of self-proclaimed \u2018Donetsk People\u2019s Republic\u2019 in\u00a0Avdiivka, who was trying to cross the demarcation line illegally. \u201cIt has been identified that the occupants recruited the man this month to spy on Ukrainian positions in the vicinity of\u00a0Avdiivka,\u201d said the spokesman. A former militant was detained in Kramatorsk. In spring and summer 2014 he was keeping watch at checkpoints of Russia-backed militant groups. Following the advance of Ukrainian troops, he fled the ranks of the militants and was hiding from law enforcements. Moreover, according to Col.\u00a0Motuzyanyk, law enforcement officers found six cases of illegal possession of arms and ammunition in the past 24 hours in Donetsk region. \u201cGrenades of various systems, three mortar shells, a short rifle,\u00a0large \u00a0number\u00a0of ammunition and much more were confiscated,\u201d said Col.\u00a0Motuzyanyk.<\/p>\n
