Moreover, intense firefights continued near Zaitseve where Russia-backed militants were shooting almost non-stop. \u201cIt should be pointed out that the adversary is shooting from two directions at once \u2013 from the south and from the east. Heavy armor \u2013 82mm mortar launchers \u2013 is deployed at both positions held by militants,\u201d said Col. Lysenko. \u00a0Provocations took place in other positions on the outskirts of Horlivka \u2013 in Novhorodske and Varkhniotoretske as well as at the Svitlodarsk bulge and Butovka coal mine position. The armistice held in Opytne and Pisky yesterday. <\/span><\/p>\n

Militants attacked seven times in 24 hours in the Luhansk sector, three incidents involved the use of mortar launchers. Insurgents shelled Ukrainian troop positions near Staryi Aidar and the outskirts, Orikhove in the Bakhmut road and in the vicinity of Popasna. Almost all the attacks took place during the hours of darkness.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the Mariupol sector, Russian proxies conducted 17 attacks yesterday, including seven mortar attacks and three cases of sniping fire. \u201cThe vicinity of Starohnativka and Shyrokyne are the central flashpoints. Hostile snipers were active in Mariinka yesterday. Moreover, militants used a armored personnel carrier. A local inhabitant sustained a fragmentation injury yesterday. The woman was taken to the hospital in Kurakhove,\u201d said the spokesman. He added that five buildings were damaged in Mariinka for the last three days.<\/span><\/p>\n

One Ukrainian serviceman died in combat yesterday and five were wounded. Three militants were killed from the self-proclaimed 11<\/span>th<\/span> regiment (Makiivka), 9<\/span>th<\/span> regiment (Novoazovsk and 3<\/span>rd<\/span> brigade (Horlivka) and seven were injured. Militant subdivisions engaged in hostilities in the Avdiivka industrial area incurred the biggest losses. \u201cAccording to the military intelligence, it is the reason why a Russian National guard unit arrived at Avdiivka industrial area. It is planned they will act as a retreat-blocking detachment,\u201d said Col. Lysenko.<\/span><\/p>\n

The spokesman also informed that militants from so-called 1<\/span>st<\/span> brigade broke up spontaneous rally of civilians in one of the near-front towns on the temporarily occupied territory. People walked out protesting against deploying firing positions of militant artillery detachments in residential quarters of the town. \u201cDuring this brutal action insurgents heavily wounded three civilians using fire arms. In order to prevent further civil unrest and cover up this tragedy, the enemy\u2019s command broadcasted gossip that it was a militant suffering from mental disorder who shot at local inhabitants. They said he had left the ranks of Russia-backed militant groups long time ago,\u201d elaborated the spokesman.<\/span><\/p>\n
