The LPR National Police will begin withdrawing weapons up to 100 mm in caliber from the contact line on Saturday at 10:00, said I. Yashchenko, quoted by LuganskInformCenter.
“We are striving to consolidate the achieved truce and are doing everything necessary to achieve this.”
At this point, we were unable to contact the ATO headquarters and the General Staff and find out whether the ATO forces had begun to withdraw equipment.
He also stressed that “in the created 30-kilometer security zone, work is planned to restore infrastructure in border areas.”
Yashchenko added that the OSCE SMM members "inspected the storage sites of weapons and equipment, noting the high quality of the preparation of the withdrawal process." Tanks will be withdrawn first, the agency was told at the headquarters of the people's militia of the republic. The second stage will take place from October 2 to November 18.
Before this, Donetsk said that the withdrawal would begin from the Luhansk direction and in 15 days would begin on the territory of the DPR.
