No details about the movements of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be made public, First Deputy Head of Presidential Administration Hennadiy Zubko has said.

"Today all information about the movements of the military forces of Ukraine will not be made public, because yesterday after it was reported that [Ukrainian] troops had advanced to Starobesheve, they were shelled by a Grad [rocket launcher]. The position of the leader of the General Staff is that all information will be closed," he told the protesters outside the presidential administration on Thursday.

Zubko asked people not to panic and not to spread panic in society.

"Today there is direct military aggression, that's why I would like to [call on] everybody, who today makes claims and hysteria in the country, to stop it, be calm and go (if you want to take up arms) to the battle-front," he said.
