The pro-Russian militants have deployed Grad multiple rocket launchers and self-propelled artillery at the cemetery in the village of Lisne near the militant-occupied town of Makiyivka, the press center of the Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) has reported late Wednesday, with reference to intelligence data.

"According to intelligence reports, as of 20:20 on November 11, the Russian-terrorist forces deployed Grad multiple rocket launchers and self-propelled artillery at the cemetery in Lisne near Makiyivka," the report says.

Russian-backed militant troops continued massing near the militant-controlled city of Donetsk in eastern Ukraine.

"Cases have been recorded when illegal armed groups continue building up their troops near Donetsk in violation of the Minsk agreements. Relocation of up to ten tanks and ten infantry fighting vehicles with seven trucks from the town of Shakhtarsk to Donetsk has been observed," the ATO press center wrote on Facebook.
