Kyiv, May 26, 2016.<\/strong> <\/em>The most difficult situation in the ATO zone was registered in the Donetsk sector yesterday \u2013 in Avdiivka, Zaitseve and Luhanske. Militants shelled ATO troops\u2019 positions 12 times in 24 hours in this area, using heavy armor three times. “Russia-backed militant groups used mortar launchers, armored personnel carriers and snipers during the attacks,\u201d\u00a0said spokesman of the Presidential Administration on ATO related issues Colonel Oleksandr Motuzyanyk at a press briefing at Ukraine Crisis Media Center.\u00a0 Ukrainian Armed Forces incurred no losses in combat yesterday, but two troops were wounded by sniping fire in Zaitseve and Novotroitske.<\/p>\n

The situation was restless in the area between Krasnohorivka and Shyrokyne in the Mariupol sector. Russia-backed militants attacked ten times in 24 hours. \u201cATO forces succeeded in destroying a hostile anti-tank missile system shooting at our positions,\u201d said Col. Motuzyanyk. Six attacks took place in the Luhansk sector. \u201cOccupants were shooting at Ukrainian positions near Novozvanivka in Popasna district for approximately two hours. Militants were using armored personnel carriers and anti-aircraft mounts during the attacks. Moreover, a hostile provocation took place in Stanytsia Luhanska,” said the spokesman.<\/p>\n

According to the Chief Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, seven died and 16 wounded militants were admitted to hospitals in Donetsk for the past 48 hours. For instance, three militants from so-called \u201c3rd separate motorized rifle brigade\u201d located in Horlivka were wounded. \u201cTwo days ago, on May 24, one militant died and another one was wounded as a result of uncoordinated actions. They were occupants’ scouts trying to get to the rear of ATO troops, but were assaulted by militants from the so-called “11th separate motorized rifle battalion\u201d, said Col.\u00a0 Motuzyanyk. Another militant, a member of the so-called \u201cKhan\u201d battalion, voluntarily surrendered to law enforcements. Two militants joined the Ukraine\u2019s Security Service (SBU) program \u201cYou are waited for at home\u201d. Ono of them, a Mariupol resident, received a suspended sentence. Another one, an inhabitant of Troitske district in Luhansk region, did not receive any punishment, because he was working as a firefighter for militants of self-proclaimed “Luhansk People’s Republic” (\u201cLPR\u201d). It was the only possible way to feed his family at that time.<\/p>\n

Law enforcement officers detained two Ukrainians and one citizen of Russia who were stealing weapons and explosives from military supply depots. They were arrested during an attempt to sell yet another batch of grenades and cartridges. “In total, law enforcements seized a large number of small arms, ball grenades of various types and over 5 thousand cartridges of various calibers,” said the spokesman. Moreover, a weapons cache was found in Mariupol. \u201cHaving responded to an emergency of rendering an anti-personnel mine safe, Mariupol police found an armory on the territory of a garage cooperative society. A spent anti-tank missile, magazine for automatic weapon and over 400 cartridges were seized from a cache,\u201d informed Col. Motuzyanyk.<\/p>\n
