A resident of Pervomaisk has been wounded in a strike by Kiev forces, town administration head Sergey Kolyagin said.

“A 76-year-old woman was wounded in today’s shelling,” Kolyagin said. “She was given first aid and sent to the central hospital in Stakhanov.”

“Overall, 34 civilians have been wounded since the the situation on the frontline escalated on February 22,” he added.

The Ukrainian government launched the so-called anti-terrorist operation against Donbass in April 2014.  The peace talks participants have announced ceasefire more than 20 times since the autumn of 2014. Kiev forces regularly violated the truce opening fire with large caliber artillery, mortars and tank guns which were to have been withdrawn from the contact line under the accords. *i*s
