Ukrainian border guards note rise in attacks on road corridors in Donbas

KYIV. Nov 3 (Interfax) - The number of attacks on road corridors in Donbas has largely increased over the past few days, Ukrainian State Border Service spokesman Oleh Slobodian said on Thursday.

He cited four instances of shelling attacks on the Mariinka checkpoint. Besides, the Ukrainian army has recorded two unmanned aerial vehicles being used by the adversary along the line of hostilities.

"The border guards continue to implement measures to let people and vehicles pass through the checkpoint along the dividing line. The situation remains tense, but controllable," Slobodian told a briefing in Kyiv.
