A decision on the withdrawal of some military units from Crimea will be made in the nearest future, Ukraine's acting defense minister Ihor Teniukh told reporters on Sunday.

"A session was held and decisions were made on the withdrawal of some units, especially families. Decisions will be made in the near future," he said.

"I am asking you not to make statements saying that there is no food on the ships […] It's total nonsense and it's not true," he said.
