Ukraine has reported four enemy provocations on Sunday, August 9, as Russia's hybrid military forces violated the newly-agreed truce in Donbas, eastern Ukraine.

"Two enemy provocations with the use of rifles were recorded near the town of Maryinka and the village of Novozvanivka. The isolated random shots posed no threat to life and health, so our soldiers did not return fire," the press center of Ukraine's Joint Forces Operation (JFO) said in a Facebook update as of 07:00 Kyiv time on August 10, 2020.

The Joint Forces were abiding by the ceasefire, being ready to adequately respond to possible attacks by the adversary, it said.

Another two provocations were recorded near the occupied village of Trudivske, where the enemy was engaged in engineering works to equip positions in the direction towards Ukraine's Joint Forces units.

On Saturday, August 8, eight enemy provocations were reported in Donbas.

What is more, a Russian-made Orlan-10 UAV was spotted flying in the area near the Sea of Azov. It crossed the contact line. "Our electronic warfare equipment immediately suppressed the enemy's drone, which made its further use impossible," it said.

Since Monday midnight, no attacks by Russian Federation's armed formations have been recorded, the JFO HQ said.

The situation is under full control of the Ukrainian military.
