Six Ukrainian servicemen injured in Donbas over past day

Six Ukrainian servicemen suffered injuries in the army operation zone in Donbas over the past day, Ukrainian Presidential Administration spokesman Oleksandr Motuzianyk said.

"None of our soldiers died in the past 24 hours but six servicemen suffered injuries," he said at a press briefing in Kyiv on Thursday.

No hostilities were [seen] in the Luhansk sector, and most provocations were staged by the enemy in the Donetsk area, including one incident in Troitske, one in Luhansk, and three sniper attacks in Zaitseve, Motuzianyk said. Militants and the Ukrainian army had two engagements in Pisky, he said.

"A series of minor provocations were observed between Avdiyivka and Pisky," the spokesman said.

Five sniper attacks were observed in the Mariupol sector, and militants briefly shelled the army positions in Talakivka, he said.

Two hostile drones were seen flying in Shyrokyne, he said.
