Towards Novoluhanske (53km north-east of Donetsk), the Russian mercenaries launched two attacks, using grenade machine guns and small arms,” the JFO Headquarters press center posted on Facebook.

Ukrainian defenders returned fire and forced the enemy to stop shelling. Joint Forces troops suffered no casualties.
