Ukraine is waiting for a response from the OCSE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM) on whether the Russian backed militants in Donbas are withdrawing weapons with a caliber of less than 100mm from the contact line in Donbas, spokesman of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Vladyslav Selezniov has told Interfax-Ukraine.

"Today we're waiting for a reply to our inquiry to the OSCE, which we sent four days ago via the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry. We asked whether the OSCE SMM has any information about the other conflicting party fulfilling its obligations on the withdrawal of arms under 100mm caliber from the contact line," he said on Friday.
