Militants in Donbas use advanced weapons to attack troops in Debaltseve – NATO
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said on Wednesday that illegal armed formations representing the so called “Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics” used advanced weapons against Ukrainian military personnel near Debaltseve.
"We have seen the separatists in eastern Ukraine making advances, especially in and around the Debaltseve and they have used advanced weapons to attack the Ukrainian forces in Debaltseve," Stoltenberg said in Riga.
He expressed his concern over the present situation in Donbas.
"We see a very difficult situation and deteriorating situation in eastern Ukraine," he stressed. "We have seen that the ceasefire has not been respected, we have seen the separatists in eastern Ukraine making advances, especially in and around the Debaltseve."
