Following the NSDC meeting, President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko made a decision to terminate the unilateral ceasefire regime in the Donbas.

Thus, the validity of the ceasefire regime proclaimed by the President on June 20 and prolonged until June 30, 22:00, is deemed to be over.

“We will attack and liberate our land. Termination of ceasefire is our response to terrorists, insurgents, marauders, everyone who tortures civilians, paralyzes the economy of the region, disrupts payments of salaries, pensions, scholarships, blasts the railroad, destroys the water pipes and deprives people of normal peaceful life,” the President said in his address to the people.
