“Assault actions and combat clashes were reported in the area of settlements of Nikyshyne and Popasna. All terrorist attacks were successfully repulsed," he added.

During Sunday, positions of the ATO forces were shelled: terrorists six times attacked units of Ukrainian troops in the area of settlements of Shchastia and Ridkodub; four times militants fired on Ukrainian positions in the area of the settlement of Nikyshyne; three times - positions in the area of Novobakhmutivka; two times artillery attacks were made on Krasnogorivka, Nevelske, Tonenke, Starohnativka, Pisky, Chornukhine and Buhlehirsk.
