Militants violated the armistice in the Luhansk sector 42 times. Half of the attacks involved the use of heavy weapons. The biggest number of shooting attacks occurred in the Popasna district. \u201cMain hostilities took place before noon and after the sunset there, when Russian proxies threw mortar and artillery fire at our strongholds. Militants sporadically shot from grenade launchers and small arms from noon till sunset in this area,\u201d said Col. Lysenko. Russia-backed militants launched over 60 mortar shells at Ukrainian positions in Krymske during the day. They also used small arms.

Lysenko. Moreover, four attacks took place in the vicinity of Donetsk airport: two in Pisky and two in Opytne. The second attack involved the use of mortar launchers in both cases.<\/p>\n

Militants conducted three mortar attacks at the Svitlodarsk bulge during the day. They also used grenade launchers.

A massive artillery and mortar attack took place in the evening. Moreover, Russia-backed militant groups used mortar launchers and small arms near Verkhniotoretske.<\/p>\n

Militants conducted 42 attacks in the Mariupol sector, and 12 of them involved the use of heavy weapons. Hostilities became more active near Dokuchaevsk. \u201cRussian proxies delivered huge artillery and mortar attack at Novotroitske after midnight, launching 20 projectiles and 30 mortar shells. The enemy attacked Ukrainian positions near Dokuchaevsk with mortars and APC weapons. Activity of one hostile sniper was registered in the same area,\u201d said the spokesman.

Moreover, militants conducted one mortar attack in Bohdanivka. 15 artillery shells were launched at Ukrainian positions in Novohryhorivka. Attacks occurred non-stop in Pavlopil-Shyrokyne frontline area. \u201cDefenders of Vodiane were affected the most, as adversaries fired about 30 artillery projectiles and over 80 mortar shells yesterday,\u201d said Col.
