Pro-Russia Rebels Say Withdrawing Artillery in East Ukraine

Moscow: The prime minister of the self-proclaimed People's Republic of Donetsk said Tuesday that rebels have removed artillery from frontline areas where Ukraine had also withdrawn, in line with a peace plan signed Saturday.

"We have withdrawn artillery but only in those areas where the Ukrainian regular units have done the same. Where Ukraine hasn't withdrawn artillery, we also haven't done so. This all only concerns artillery with calibre greater than 100 mm," the rebel leader, Alexander Zakharchenko told Interfax news agency.
