The Permanent Mission of Ukraine to the United Nations again called on the Russian Federation to stop violence in Donbas and implement the Paris Summit agreements in the Normandy format.

“Today Russian forces launched an attack in Donbas killing a Ukrainian soldier. The ceasefire is being violated daily,” reads the statement of Ukraine’s Permanent Mission to the UN on its official Twitter account.

In this regard, the Ukrainian side emphasized the need for Russia to comply with international agreements regarding a peaceful settlement of the situation.

"Russia must give up violence and the logic of war, and implement its obligations under the agreed conclusions of the Paris N4 Summit and the Minsk Agreements," the statement says.

As Ukrinform reported, on May 26, Russian-occupation troops launched six attacks on Ukrainian positions in the Joint Forces Operation (JFO) area in Donbas. As a result of the enemy shelling, a soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was killed.
