Militants have opened fire on the positions of the Ukrainian troops in Luhansk region four times, the press center of the anti-terrorist operation (ATO) reported.

"Ukrainian units have come under gunfire three times in the populated area of Kriakivka and the village of Novotoshkivske came under fire from Grad systems," the ATO press service said on Facebook.

The press center said militants continue trying to provoke the Ukrainian military to open fire and violate the ceasefire regime and they "are destroying the infrastructure of the populated areas of Donbas controlled by the Ukrainian authorities."

In the 32 hours of ceasefire, militants violated the Minsk agreements 14 times on the road to Luhansk, the report says.
