“We are concerned about the intensification of hostilities in eastern Ukraine and the reports of the Ukrainian General Staff that the Ukrainian armed forces used a Bayraktar drone in response to shelling and the killing of a soldier,” TASS quotes a statement from the agency’s spokesman Andrea Zasse.
She noted that drones are used by all parties to the conflict, "and this is only allowed by the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission."
Earlier, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine confirmed that the Ukrainian military for the first time used the Turkish Bayraktar drone in Donbas.
The DPR noted that no one was injured as a result of the UAV attack on the oil depot in Donetsk.
