The combined Russian-separatist forces attacked Ukrainian army positions and civilian areas in eastern Ukraine more than 60 times in the last day, the press center of the Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) wrote on its Facebook page on Tuesday.

As of 06:00 Kyiv time on July 21, the militants fired 152mm artillery on ATO forces near the villages of Rozsadky, Maiorske, Zaitseve, Lozove at 04:30 Kyiv time, as well as tanks near the village of Bohdanivka. They also fired small arms near the Donetsk airport, the villages of Novomaryivka, Troitske, Stanytsia Luhanska and the town of Maryinka.

Over the last day, the Russian mercenaries fired 152mm and 122mm artillery 11 times, 120mm mortars 19 times, as well as tanks three times.

"From 18:40 Kyiv time on Monday, the Kremlin terrorists were firing from a tank on Avdiyivka Coke Plant. At 22:10 Kyiv time, they fired 152mm and 122mm artillery systems on residential areas of Avdiyivka," the press-center said.

Russian proxies also fired banned weapons on ATO forces near the villages of Novhorodske, Opytne, Nevelske, Pisky, and the towns of Krasnohorivka and Avdiyivka. The positions of the Ukrainian armed forces were also under harassing militant fire near the villages of Shyrokyne, Maiorske, Bolotenne and the town of Maryinka.

The defenders of Ukraine effectively rebuffed the enemy, using allowed weapons.
