NSDC reports individual violations of truce in Donbas

KYIV. Sept 12 (Interfax) - There have been individual violations of the truce in eastern Ukraine in the past 24 hours, the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council said.

"Tensions persist in the ATO zone. The ceasefire regime has been preserved in the past 24 hours in spite of individual violations. The Ukrainian servicemen suffered no casualties," NSDC Information Analysis Center spokesman Andriy Lysenko said at a press briefing in Kyiv on Friday.

He said the Donetsk airport had come under mortar, artillery and rocket launcher fire.

A civilian vehicle was blown up by a mine at a roadblock near Stanitsa Luhanska on Thursday morning. The driver died and a border guard was injured, Lysenko added.
