Pasechnik noted that the situation on the front line is tense and Ukrainian militants do not stop trying to attack Russian positions, however, the Russian Armed Forces repel all attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Our servicemen control the situation at the front, repel enemy attacks, defend the borders," he said.
