.@OSCE_SMM conflict monitors spotted four new Russian electronic warfare systems in eastern #Ukraine -- more evidence Russia’s military is orchestrating the conflict in the Donbas. #Russia must fully implement the Minsk agreements and pull its forces out of Ukraine.

The OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine (SMM) said in its report of Aug. 10 that "in non-government-controlled areas, on 28 July, an SMM mini-UAV spotted four distinct electronic warfare systems (a Leer-3 RB-341V, a 1L269 Krasukha-2 and RB-109A Bylina, and an anti-UAV system, Repellent-1) near Chornukhyne (64km south-west of Luhansk).

The observers stressed that they saw all the mentioned EW systems for the first time. According to the same report, the SMM's drone did not spot the same systems during a flight over the same area on Aug. 2.

The Joint Center for Control and Coordination of the cease-fire in the Donbas (JCCC) noted that all the mentioned equipment was produced in the Russian Federation in recent years while RB-109A Bylina was to be adopted by the Russian army only this year based on the results of the military tests.

Crimea is part of Ukraine. Russia’s construction of the bridge serves as a reminder of Russia’s ongoing willingness to flout international law.

"The bridge represents not only an attempt by Russia to solidify its unlawful seizure and its occupation of Crimea, but also impedes navigation by limiting the size of ships that can transit the Kerch Strait, the only path to reach Ukraine’s territorial waters in the Sea of Azov. We call on Russia not to impede this shipping.

"The United States has sanctioned numerous individuals and entities involved in this project. These and our other Crimea-related sanctions will remain in place until Russia returns control of the peninsula to Ukraine.

"We once again reaffirm our commitment to Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity and recall the international community’s expression of that commitment in UN General Assembly Resolution 68/262."
