Kiev forces jam SMM's UAVs three times in a week

Kiev forces jammed unmanned aerial vehicles of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission three times in a week, said LPR People's Militia press service officer Ivan Filiponenko.

"Three incidents of jamming OSCE aerial vehicles with Bukovel-AD counter-drone system by Ukrainian army were recorded this week. Mobile groups of the 20^th electronic warfare battalion jammed SMM's UAVs in the responsibility zones of 14^th, 57^th, 59^th Ukrainian brigades," the report reads.

The Ukrainian government launched the so-called anti-terrorist operation against Donbass in April 2014. Conflict settlement relies on the Package of Measures for the Implementation of the Minsk Agreements, signed on February 12, 2015 in the Belarussian capital by the Contact Group members and coordinated by the Normandy Four heads of states (Russia, Germany, France and Ukraine). The document provides for ceasefire and withdrawal of heavy weapons from the contact line. *t
