Ukraine-OSCE-Russia group on Donbas ceasefire begins work - ATO press center

A joint working group of the center for controlling and coordinating the ceasefire and the gradual stabilization of the line delimiting the conflicting parties in eastern Ukraine, which includes representatives of Ukraine, the OSCE monitoring group and 76 Russian Armed Forces servicemen, began its work at 0800 on Friday, the press center for the anti-terrorist operation (ATO) has reported on its page on Facebook.

The center's working group will take measures to establish a complete ceasefire regime.

It is planned to withdraw artillery systems of more than 100 millimeter caliber and create a 30-kilometer delimitation zone, which is envisaged by the Minsk memorandum, as well as to dismantle previously installed mines and explosive barriers in the designated areas of the warring parties. The ceasefire zone will be divided into four or five security sectors, where three to five OSCE monitoring groups and representatives of Ukraine and Russia will work.

"This working group of the joint center will monitor the ceasefire during the entire period of the stabilization of the situation in Donetsk and Luhansk regions," the report says.
