The Ukrainian military is trying to shoot down all unmanned vehicles of the OSCE SMM with their air defense systems in order to prevent the detection of prohibited weapons by Ukrainian militants near the village of Dzerzhinsk.
This was reported on the official website of the DPR Armed Forces, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The occupation forces did not find anything smarter than to fire at the Mission’s drone launch area with mortars, blaming the DPR for this. It is important to note that in this area during this period of time, even the Ukrainian representation in the JCCC did not record shelling,” the military department notes.
The DPR army made a logical conclusion that the Ukrainian side fired at the UAV from positions in the rear.
“We can say with confidence that the action to intimidate international observers was carried out from the depths of the positions of the Ukrainian occupiers,” said the Operational Command of the DPR Armed Forces.
