Ukrainian Defense Ministry reported that military equipment and fuel arrive to DPR from Russia

According to Ukrinform, the speaker of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, Andriy Lysenko, reported that equipment and fuel have been delivered to the separatist-controlled areas of Ilovaysk and Khartsyzk in the Donbas.

“The railway station in Ilovaysk received a delivery of two trains with military equipment and logistical support for combat operations, as well as six tanks carrying fuels and lubricants. A total of nine wagons carrying ammunition, food and winter clothing also arrived at Khartsyzk station. Kuteynikove station and Rovenki station each received seven tanks carrying fuels and lubricants,” Lysenko said.

Last week, the OSCE stated that the highest levels of violence in Donbas have been observed in Avdiivka, Yasynuvata and at Donetsk Airport.

The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine had previously reported on the impossibility of withdrawing forces and equipment near the Stanitsia Luhanska settlement in accordance with the agreement dated the 21st of September. After signing the agreement, the parties completed the withdrawal of forces in Petrovske and Zolote. However, as observers of the OSCE SMM reported, they cannot work in these areas due to the presence of landmines.
