Russian-terrorist forces on Friday, May 26, fired from 152 mm artillery at the positions of Ukrainian troops non-stop for 40 minutes, Colonel Andrei Lysenko, press secretary of the defense ministry for the ATO told a Saturday briefing in Kyiv, according to an UNIAN correspondent.
"In the Donetsk direction, the situation remains rather tense outside Novobakhmutivka. Near Avdiyivka the militants fired our positions from 152 mm artillery. They were shooting every 60 seconds for 40 minutes," Lysenko said.

The OSCE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM) to Ukraine has spotted banned 122mm Gvozdika self-propelled howitzers in the occupied territory of Donetsk region.
"The SMM continued to monitor the withdrawal of weapons, in implementation of the Memorandum, the Package of Measures and its Addendum," the SMM said in a report based on information received as of 19:30 local time on May 24, 2017.
"In violation of withdrawal lines, in non-government-controlled areas, the SMM saw two self-propelled howitzers (2S1 Gvozdika, 122mm) 2.5km north-east of Zaichenko (26km north-east of Mariupol) pointed in a south-westerly direction," the report says.
"On May 23, in non-government-controlled areas, the SMM saw an anti-aircraft gun (ZU-23) mounted on a military truck (Ural-type) in the western outskirts of Luhansk city heading east on road M04 and, in the same location on 24 May, five IFVs (BTR-type) heading north; and an armoured personnel carrier (APC) (MT-LB) in Zaichenko (93km south of Donetsk). Aerial imagery revealed on 23 May three ACVs (type unknown) near Sokilnyky (38km north-west of Luhansk)," the mission said.
In 'LPR'-controlled area south of Stanytsia Luhanska bridge, the SMM continued to observe, the remnants of a 82mm mortar and of a rocket of a multiple launch rocket system (BM-21 Grad, 122mm) on the tarmac road 250m north of the Prince Ihor monument," reads the report.
