The Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine has recorded another evidence of Russia's military presence in the temporarily occupied territory of Luhansk region.

After a shooting attack by an illegal armed group in the so-called "LPR" [the self-proclaimed Luhansk People's Republic], the prosecutors of the department for control over proceedings on the crimes committed under conditions of the military conflict examined the scene and discovered a used item of ordnance.

"It was a grenade launched from the RShG-1 Tavolga grenade launcher produced in Russia in 2006. The Armed Forces of Ukraine never used and are not using the RShG-1 Tavolga grenade launchers," the PGO said.

It also added that the evidence will be used in the Ukraine v. Russia cases in international and national courts.
