The enemy used the mounted anti-tank grenade launchers and small arms in the area of Vodyane and Shumy.
The Ukrainian servicemen did not return fire, as attacks did not pose any threat to their lives and health.
None of servicemen of Ukraine's government troops were wounded or killed in action.
Over the last 24 hours, Ukrainian combat engineers cleared five hectares of the territory from landmines, and passed 74 explosive items for further safe destruction.
Also, the Ukrainian Parliament’s adoption of bill № 4467 on the extension of the "special status" of Donbas will contribute to the peaceful settlement of the situation in certain districts of Donbas.
"Adoption of the bill as a law will contribute to the peaceful settlement of the situation in separate districts of Donetsk and Luhansk regions in accordance with political agreements. In this regard, it is suggested to support the adoption of this bill," Ukrainian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group (TCG) reported.
