Russia must stop the supply of lethal weapons to its proxies in Donbas, the U.S. Embassy to Ukraine has said.

"A picture is worth a thousand words. Russia must stop providing deadly weapons under cover of night to its proxies in eastern Ukraine. These weapons, including those @OSCE_SMM spotted by UAV, kill soldiers and civilians alike. Only Russia can bring an end to bloodshed in Ukraine," the U.S. Embassy said on Twitter referring to the information provided by the OSCE SMM.

"In a non-government controlled area of Donetsk region near the border with the Russian Federation, an SMM UAV again spotted convoys of trucks along a dirt road where there is no border crossing facility in the middle of the night. One of the trucks carried an anti-aircraft gun," the OSCE SMM said.
