The OSCE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM) to Ukraine has said its monitors recorded fire shots at the disengagement site near the village of Petrivske in Donbas.

"On November 9, the SMM observed the beginning of the disengagement process at the disengagement area near Petrivske (non-government-controlled, 41km south of Donetsk)," the OSCE SMM said in a daily spot report on November 11, 2019.

"On the same day, positioned about 500m north-west of Petrivske, the SMM heard 20 undetermined explosions and a burst of heavy-machine-gun fire, all at an assessed range of 6- 8km north-west and assessed as outside the disengagement area but within its 5km periphery. Additionally, while positioned in Petrivske, the SMM observed a non-SMM mini-UAV flying in a westerly direction."
