The fire brigade arrived at the scene in eight minutes and eliminated the fire. The police have started an investigation after spotting on the camera an unknown masked man with a large plastic-package entering the parking lot and setting the SMM vehicle on fire.

The OSCE has been tasked with monitoring the implementation of the Minsk deal provisions on settling the conflict between Kiev and the pro-independence militias in the country's east. The Minsk accords include a full ceasefire and weapons withdrawal from the line of contact. The SMM reports on ceasefire violations by both sides.
