MOSCOW, June 17. /TASS/. Ukrainian forces have fired 28
shells at the outskirts of Donetsk at the evening on Thursday’s evening and in
the small hours of Friday, a source in law enforcement agencies of the
self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) told Donetsk News Agency.
"The Ukrainian side shelled the territory of former
Donetsk airport, Volvo Center and Staromikhaylovka from 9:20pm until 11:50pm,"
the source said adding that "Ukrainian forces fired 28 shells of 82mm
caliber in total."
According to the source, Kiev forces opened fire from
their positions in settlements of Krasnogorovka, Opytnoye and Peski.
On Thursday Ukrainian forces shelled DPR territory
almost 400 times along the contact line.
The participants of the Contact Group on settling the
situation in east Ukraine agreed on observing Easter ceasefire starting from
April 30. However, the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk republics (DPR and
LPR) and Kiev forces continue accusing each other of violating the ceasefire
regime in Donbass.
