Donetsk, Aug 16 – DAN. Ukrainian forces violated the ceasefire once in the past 24 hours, the DPR mission to the Joint Centre for Control and Coordination (JCCC) said.

“Over the past 24 hours, the number of registered violations was one, the number of rounds fired – six”, the mission said.

Leninskoye was targeted with an under-barrel grenade launcher and small arms.

All the attempts to reinstall the ceasefire through the coordination mechanism failed as Ukrainian ignored the requests.

The Additional Measures to Strengthen the Ceasefire were signed at the Contact Group meeting on July 22 to reinforce and control the indefinite ceasefire in effect since July 21, 2019, the latest in the series of more than 20 reconfirmation and announcements of the “silence regime”. The package came into effect on July 27. *ote Package of Measures. *ot
