Secretary General Thorbjørn Jagland made the following statement today: “I am deeply concerned by news from Donbas and reports of heavy fighting, resulting in the loss of lives and a worsening humanitarian situation affecting many civilians including children.
We are particularly concerned about the humanitarian situation in the cities of Donbas, notably in Avdiivka. I call on all sides to immediately stop hostilities and respect the ceasefire as defined in the Minsk agreement.”
