Clashes took place near the checkpoint in Zolote, Luhansk region. Combat veterans and members of the National Corps organization came there to hold the rally against disengagement of Ukrainian troops in this area.

Initially, the law enforcers did not let them pass, they even shot in the air. However, they let them across the checkpoint. According to the protesters, the disengagement could begin today.

However, the Joint Forces Operation reported it would not happen, as the enemy breached the ceasefire regime in the combat zone. It is supposed to hold for a week, before the disengagement procedure could start.
