Kyiv, August 11, 2016.<\/strong>\u00a0Ukraine has not committed any armed provocations on the administrative border with Crimea and no officers of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine have been detained in the temporarily occupied Crimea. \u201cThe Russian Federation made another step in the informational warfare. The Federal Security Service of Russia and Putin accused Ukraine of instigating provocations on the administrative border between the Kherson region and the occupied Crimea and came up with a series of threats towards our country. All of Moscow\u2019s statements made yesterday contradict reality. [\u2026] These Kremlin\u2019s actions and statements were made in order to discredit Ukraine, undermine the Minsk Agreements, and escalate the conflict in the east of Ukraine caused by the Russian aggression,\u201d said the spokesman of Presidential Administration on ATO-related issues Colonel Oleksandr Motuzyanyk. The President of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, emphasized that it is Russia that \u201chas been generously financing and actively supporting terrorism on the territory of Ukraine, bringing it to the level of its state policy.\u201d \u201cOur partners from the United States of America discarded these false allegations of Russian authorities. For instance, the US State Department and Geoffrey\u00a0Pyatt,\u00a0the United States Ambassador to Ukraine,\u00a0emphasized that there was no proof to back these Russian allegations, as Ukraine refuted them. We call upon citizens to stay alert,\u201d added the spokesman.<\/p>\n

In addition to mortar launchers, militants were shooting from grenade launchers of various systems and small arms. The armistice held in the Avdiivka industrial area during the day. \u201cThe Svitlodarsk bulge and the northern outskirts of Horlivka were yet more areas where militants were active.

Russian proxies started shelling Ukrainian positions with grenade launchers and small arms around 6 p.m., following which they drove in the armor and opened from armored personnel carriers and infantry combat vehicles. \u201cAttacks stopped late at night. Two children \u2013 an eight-year-old and a 13-year-old \u2013 were injured in Mariinka as a result of hostile combat activity. Moreover, three residential buildings were damaged in this town in the occupants\u2019 aggressive actions,\u201d said Col. Motuzyanyk. Militants also were active in Novotroitske and Hnutove-Shyrokyne frontline area in the Mariupol sector. Attacks were mostly conducted during the hours of darkness in this area. \u201cAdversaries launched over 60 mortar shells at Talakivka defenders\u2019 positions. At the same time, enemy delivered an intense artillery attack at ATO troops\u2019 positions in Vodiane at dawn, launching 70\u00a0122-mm missiles.
