Invaders in Donbas try to shoot down OSCE drone

The OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine has recorded that Russian armed formations fired an anti-aircraft gun near occupied Zolote-5 (Mykhailivka) in Luhansk region.

The OSCE SMM informed this in a report issued on January 15, based on information received as of 19:30 on January 14, 2020.

“While driving about 1km east of Zolote-5/Mykhailivka (non-government-controlled, 58km west of Luhansk), the SMM saw an anti-aircraft gun (ZU-23, 23mm) and on two occasions heard and saw it fire a total of eight rounds," the report says.

The SMM landed its UAV safely and left the area.

In addition, while conducting a mini-UAV flight on the north-eastern edge of Shymshynivka (nongovernment-controlled, 27km south-west of Luhansk), the SMM heard seven shots and ten bursts of small-arms fire, assessed as directed at its UAV.
