DONETSK – International monitors say fighting in eastern Ukraine has abated but the warring sides have kept heavy weapons near the front line.
Alexander Hug, deputy head of the monitoring mission of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, said on Feb. 6 that “the fighting has now subsided somewhat,” but added the OSCE monitors still have registered more than 1,300 cease-fire violations over the past 24 hours.
