Two Ukrainian troops have been wounded in Donbas in the past 24 hours, Ukrainian presidential administration official Andriy Lysenko said.

"None of our troops have been killed and two troops have been wounded in the past 24 hours," Lysenko told a briefing in Kyiv on Friday.

He said the situation in the anti-terrorist operation zone is exacerbating and militants are increasingly using heavy weapons (mortars and armored vehicles).

"On the Donetsk track, attacks were registered along the entire frontline; it was especially intensive on the Svitlodar arch and in the Horlivka area. Most attacks were targeted," Lysenko said.

A presidential administration official also said militants have used guided anti-tank missiles in the Slovyanoserbsk area.
