“The enemy used 120mm mortars banned under the Minsk agreements, antitank missile systems, grenade launchers, heavy machine guns, and small arms to shell Ukrainian positions. The Joint Forces units effectively engaged duty fire weapons to timely respond to enemy provocations and suppressed their armed activity by aiming fire,” the press center of the JFO Headquarters reports.

In the zone of action of tactical force “North”, the enemy used grenade launchers of different systems and heavy machine guns to shell defenders of Novoluhanske (53km north-east of Donetsk); grenade machine guns, heavy machine guns, and small arms – on the outskirts of Orikhove (57km north-west of Luhansk); heavy machine guns – near Novhorodske (35km north of Donetsk).
