No Ukrainian military servicemen have been killed in Donbas over the past 24 hours; two were injured by setting off a tripwire mine on Friday, and their lives are out of danger now, Ukrainian presidential spokesman for the anti-terrorist operation in eastern Ukraine Andriy Lysenko said.

"No one has been killed over the past 24 hours. Two servicemen were injured by setting off a tripwire mine while conducting a special operation to rehabilitate the territory and detect possible subversive and reconnaissance groups. They sustained injuries and were provided with medical aid, and nothing threatens their lives now," Lysenko said at a news briefing in Kyiv on Saturday when asked to comment on reports that two Ukrainian servicemen had been injured near Horlivka.
