An official representative of the LPR People’s Militia, Yakov Osadchiy, reported that the Kiev security forces deployed additional checkpoints in the area of the so-called “Joint Forces Operation” (“OOS”) to monitor the patrols of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM).
“The increasing incidence of the opening by the OSCE SMM of Ukrainian military equipment deployed in violation of the withdrawal lines, as well as in the territories of the civilian infrastructure of settlements controlled by Kiev, force the command of the operational-tactical group (OTG) “ Sever” to fester, coming up with new methods for early detection mission patrols, with the aim of relocating prohibited weapons, ” he said.
“Thus, the commanders of the 30th and 93rd brigades of the Armed Forces, to the detriment of the staffing of units to replace servicemen on the front line, created temporary checkpoints in the areas of command responsibility, whose personnel track the movement of SMM patrols, and also prevents air observation posts and maneuverable electronic warfare groups (EW) about the take-off of UAV drones, ” said Osadchy.
