Donetsk, Jul 10 - DAN. Ukrainian forces fired 85 rounds of ammunition at Donetsk People’s Republic frontline areas over the past 24 hours, head of the DPR Mission to the Joint Centre for Control and Coordination (JCCC) Ruslan Yakubov said on Tuesday.

“Overall, Ukrainian army units expended 85 rounds of ammunition,” Yakubov said.

Donetsk’s northern outskirts, Gorlovka suburbs and the southern Leninskoye and Sakhanka villages came under Ukrainian forces fire, he added.

The JCCC recorded five ceasefire violations by Ukrainian forces over the reporting period.
