Militants were shooting almost non-stop in the Avdiivka industrial area for five hours,\u201d said the spokesman. The situation deteriorated significantly after 6 p.m. Mortar launchers and 122-mm cannons were used in Luhanske, the same as in the morning, and Butovka coal mine position and Pisky were shelled from mortar launchers.
