“Ukrainian engineering and sapper units can actually demine certain parts of the terrain, but in order to prepare for an offensive,” Luchansk Information Center quotes Marochko.

He also admitted the possibility that "under the guise of demining, the armed forces of Ukraine may, on the contrary, undermine the territory at the line of contact".

Earlier, the Ukrainian leader Petro Poroshenko signed the law "On Mine Action", which regulates the procedure for carrying out demining operations in the territory of Donbass.
