No Ukrainian servicemen were killed but three suffered injuries in eastern Ukraine in the past 24 hours, Ukrainian Presidential Administration spokesman Andriy Lysenko said.
“None of our soldiers died in the hostilities over the past day but three suffered injuries. That happened in shelling incidents: two were injured near Krasnohorivka and one near Pavlopil,” Lysenko said at a press briefing in Kyiv on July 29.
“Two armed provocations were staged” near Lopaskyne in Luhansk Oblast, he said.
“The hostilities resumed in the Troitske – Luhanske – Zaitseve – Mayorsk area in the Donetsk sector. The enemy sporadically used infantry combat vehicles and mortars. The Avdiyivka industrial zone remained an epicenter of the hostilities. Thirty-three provocations were staged in that area over the past day, including seven by use of heavy armaments,” Lysenko said.
Fighting continues along the entire frontline in the Mariupol sector, he said. Ukrainian army positions in Maryinka were shelled by mortars, and an engagement in that area lasted for three hours, he said.
The hostiles fired mortars in Krasnohorivka and Vodyane. A total of 20 provocations were observed in that area in the past 24 hours, including four by use of heavy weapons, Lysenko said.
