“The situation in the ATO zone has not changed in the past 24 hours: there is still escalation,” the ATO HQ said on Facebook on Sunday morning.
Twenty-four attacks on Ukrainian troops were reported in the Mariupol sector. In particular, the enemy used 122mm artillery systems, which are banned under the Minsk agreements, along with 82mm mortars to shell ATO positions near the village of Pavlopil in Donetsk region twice in the evening.
