Truce continues to hold in Donbas – Ukrainian military

The past 24 hours have not seen any violations of the ceasefire in Donbas, the press center of the Ukrainian army operation reported on Tuesday.

"The long-awaited truce allows us to implement the practical part of the withdrawal of hardware and weapons under 100mm caliber from the contact line. The pullback of Ukrainian tanks from the frontline positions in the Luhansk region will continue today," the press center said on its Facebook account.

The withdrawal of military hardware and weapons "is not diminishing the defense potential of Ukrainian units", and these forces and equipment could promptly be brought back should such a need arise, it said.

Ukrainian Armed Forces personnel taking part in the operation are still at their positions and remain on high alert, the press center said.
