OSCE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM) is investigating the explosion in Luhansk region which resulted in death of the mission monitor, Joseph Stone. The tragedy happened on April 23, when an SMM team consisting of two armored vehicles was returning from a patrol driving back the same road they had driven two hours earlier, which they also used the previous days. There is no full detail on what caused this explosion, but it was likely a mine, reported\u00a0Principal Deputy Chief Monitor of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine Alexander Hug at a press briefing at Ukraine Crisis Media Center. \u201cWhat happened was not an accident. It was the use of an indiscriminate weapon. A weapon intentionally placed in that location to injure, maim or kill someone.\u00a0[\u2026]\u00a0There are disgraceful speculations that somehow the OCSE is to be blamed for the tragedy, as the patrol should never have been in that location. Our mandate says that we are meant to have full and unhindered access everywhere, with no exceptions,\u201d emphasized Hug. Since the beginning of 2016, SMM has recorded and verified 141 cases of civilian casualties related to mines, unexploded ordnance or improvised explosive device \u2013 96 people wounded and 45 deaths.<\/p>\n

Last week SMM observed a reduction in level of violence, though this decrease was minimal. \u201cAround one third of ceasefire violations happened in Avdiivka \u2013 Yasynuvata \u2013 Donetsk airport triangle, 25 % in Popasna \u2013 Troitske \u2013 Pervomaisk area, and most of the remainder \u2013 in areas south of Svitlodarsk and east of Mariupol,\u201d said Hug. The reduction was noticeable in terms of use of Minsk proscribed weapons. \u00a0\u201cLast week we recorded 55 % fewer explosions attributable to the proscribed weapons compared to the previous week. Despite the decrease, the SMM again observed damage to civilian property in populated areas on both sides of the contact line,\u201d added Principal Deputy Chief Monitor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
