KYIV, September 15 /Ukrinform/. The “DPR” militants restricted the access for the OSCE monitors to the three areas in Makiivka (11km north-east of Donetsk), where the armoured vehicles and artillery could be stored.

This is stated in the report of the OSCE SMM.

"The SMM observed three compounds with high walls in separate locations - one populated area and two industrial areas - which were guarded by armed men with military-type uniform. Due to the high walls the SMM could not confirm the presence of artillery or armoured vehicles inside. At the gate of one compound, the SMM saw the inscription 'Vostok Battalion' and a 'DPR' flag,” the report says.

A day before, he observers were not allowed to enter the village of Zhelobok in the terrorist-controlled territory in Luhansk region.
