Sabotage-reconnaissance group and sappers of occupying forces blew up in Donbass when attempting to exit the line of the clash on their own mines, the Colonel Dmytro Hutsulyak spokesman for the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said.

«According to the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the Russian occupation troops continue to improve the engineering equipment of advanced positions and install additional mine-blasting obstacles, including using anti-personnel mines prohibited by international conventions», speaker said.
However, according to Hutsulyak, the chaotic mining of the terrain and the lack of interaction between the units of the invaders lead to losses of their personnel.
«In particular, on July 23rd, when trying to exit the collision line in its own minefield, the enemy’s sabotage and reconnaissance group and the so-called «servicemen» of the engineering and demining unit were blown up, which were supposed to ensure their passage», spokesman said.

As «Journalist» reported during the past twenty-four hours the militants opened fire on the positions of the Ukrainian military.
