Today, May 12, Russian-backed forces have violated ceasefire near Krymske in Luhansk region twice.
Ukrainian Defense Ministry spokesman Dmytro Hutsuliak said this at a briefing on Tuesday, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.
"Since the beginning of the current day, as of 12:00, the armed formations of the Russian Federation violated the Minsk agreements by firing 120mm mortars, mounted antitank grenade launchers and small arms at Ukrainian positions near Krymske [42km north-west of Luhansk]," Hutsuliak said.
The Ukrainian military gave a decent response to the enemy and thwarted hostile armed activity with light infantry weapons.
One member of the Joint Forces sustained shrapnel wounds; he was taken to a hospital. His health condition is satisfactory.
