Two Ukrainian servicemen have been wounded over the past 24 hours as a result of attacks by militant groups in the Anti-Terrorism Operation (ATO) zone in eastern Ukraine, the Presidential Administration's ATO spokesman Oleksandr Motuzianyk has said.

"Over the past 24 hours two Ukrainian servicemen have been wounded in hostilities. No troops were killed," Motuzianyk said on Thursday at a regularly scheduled briefing in Kyiv.

According to him, the Ukrainian troops were wounded by enemy snipers in the villages of Zaitseve and Novotroitske.

Six attacks were registered in the Luhansk sector in the last day. For two hours, the enemy was shelling Ukrainian positions in the village of Novozvanivka. The village of Stanytsia Luhanska also came under fire.

In the Donetsk sector, Russian proxies have been still shelling areas near the town of Avdiyivka, the villages of Zaitseve and Luhanske. A total of 12 attacks were registered in that sector. Three of them were from heavy weapons.

The situation in the Mariupol sector remains unchanged. The enemy continues shelling Ukrainian troops along the entire front line – from the town of Krasnohorivka to the village of Shyrokyne, which is not far from the Ukrainian-controlled strategic port city of Mariupol. Ten militant attacks were registered in that sector in the last day.
