One Ukrainian soldier killed, 42 separatists' attacks on Ukrainian troops in past day

The separatists attacked the Ukrainian positions using mortars, APCs, grenade launchers, air defence guns, large calibre machineguns, and small arms. Most attacks are reported near the strategic government-controlled seaport Mariupol and the separatist-held city of Donetsk. One Ukrainian soldier was killed and three were wounded in the hostilities over the past day, military spokesman Andriy Lysenko told a press briefing in Kyiv on Friday.
