Hug: Separatist ‘fighter threatened to kill OSCE monitors’

A Russian-separatist militant threatened to kill members of
the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe’s monitoring mission
in Ukraine, Alexander Hug, the deputy chief monitor said at a press conference
in Donetsk on Aug. 19.

“Just this morning, in Bezimine (Southern Donetsk Oblast)
down at the Azov Sea a DPR member threatened to kill our observers should they
come to the checkpoint (he was manning) another time,” Hug said.
