DPR military facility.
DONETSK, October 27.
/TASS/. Militias of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) have
shot down a Ukrainian unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCVA) when it was
targeting a DPR military facility, Spokesman for the DPR People's Militia
Daniil Bezsonov said on Saturday.
"The Ukrainian
side keeps breaching the Minsk accords concerning the use of UCVAs. In the past
24 hours, as the adversary was attempting to deliver a strike on a guarded
military facility of the DPR People’s Militia, the air defense force destroyed another
unmanned combat aerial vehicle of the Ukrainian Armed Forces," he was
cited by the Donetsk news agency as saying.
The agreements
adopted at Minsk meetings of the Contact Group seeking peace for eastern
Ukraine allow only the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM) to use UAVs in
areas adjacent to the disengagement line in Donbass.
