Kiev forces blocked the operation of OSCE Special Monitoring Mission unmanned aerial vehicles nine times over the past week, Lugansk People’s Republic People’s Militia spokesman Ivan Filiponenko said at a press briefing.

Kiev army units used Bukovel-AD systems in the areas of Stanitsa Luganskaya, Zolotoye and Gorskoye, the Bobrovo, Muratovo and Malinovoye villages and the Bobrovskoye township, he added.
