Ukrainian forces have accused militia in the country’s southeast (Donbass) of over two dozen ceasefire violations on the day that a new regime of silence came into force in the troubled region.

KIEV (Sputnik) – A new ceasefire came into force in Donbass on September 1. The ceasefire agreement was reached between Ukraine’s conflicting sides during a Contact Group meeting in August.

"The situation in the area remains volatile in all directions — illegal armed formation have opened fire 25 times at the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces," a Thursday Facebook statement posted by the press center of Kiev’s military operation in Donbass says. The statement does not specify the exact time of the incidents.
