OSCE observes three columns of military hardware in Donbas

OSCE observers reoprt about three columns of military equipment in the self-proclaimed DNR.

The statement was made by head of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine Alexander Hug, Interfax Ukraine reports.

The OSCE observed three columns of unmarked military hardware in the past few days, but was unable to identify them, according to Hug.

OSCE observers earlier noticed columns of unmarked military hardware in the DNR. Separatists said later the vehicles belonged to them.

NATO said on Wednesday that columns of Russian military equipment and troops entered Ukraine.

The OSCE said in a weekly report that trucks carrying coal and dead bodies were moving from Donbas to Russia. Observers pay attention to a record number of persons in military-style clothing crossing the border in both directions. At least 665 persons in military-style dress crossed the border at Gukovo and Donetsk border crossing points.
