Thanks to the skillful actions of the DPR People's Militia, it was possible to avoid shelling of the OSCE SMM representatives by Ukrainian snipers.
Official representative of the operational command of the DPR Dmitry Astrakhan announced this during a briefing, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to his information, the Ukrainian army continues to ignore the agreements reached in Minsk on the disengagement of forces and assets in the area of the Petrovskoye settlement and is deliberately creating a source of tension in this area.
“For several days, intelligence from the People’s Militia of the DPR has recorded an increase in sniper attacks from the Ukrainian Armed Forces in this area. In one case, only thanks to the skillful actions of the republic’s defenders, representatives of the OSCE SMM who arrived at the disengagement area for the purpose of monitoring did not come under sniper fire,” Astrakhan said.
