There was no complete ceasefire along the contact line in Donbas, since militants continue to violate it, using mortars in addition to infantry weapons, the press center of the anti-terrorist operation (ATO) headquarters reported.

In the Donetsk sector, the enemy fired at the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine using 82-mm mortars, grenade launchers and small arms at Verkhniotoretske. On the outskirts of Avdiyivka, militants fired at the defensive fortifications of the Ukrainian army using large-caliber machine guns. Ukrainian soldiers did not open fire.
