The General Staff chief and the defense minister have just reported the status of the Donetsk airport and the 29th and 31st roadblocks. National Security and Defense Council Secretary Turchynov will fly to the ATO zone tomorrow. Amid the escalation of tensions, the president has decided to cut short his visit to Switzerland and to return to Ukraine tomorrow," the press secretary said.
