DPR says last night relatively quiet

DONETSK. Nov 19 (Interfax) - All was relatively quiet in Donetsk and along the line of contact between the Donbas warring sides in the past 24 hours and the military settings did not change much, the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) defense department told Interfax on Wednesday.

"There were no major movements on the frontline in the early morning hours of November 19. The intensity of artillery fire of the enemy has reduced in certain areas of the front," a militia staff representative told Interfax.

Donetsk public utility services reported the absence of damage done to residential areas by artillery shelling last night. Information about possible casualties is being updated.
