On November 4, the JCCCC observers registered four ceasefire violations by the Ukrainian army. The military fired on Dolomitnoye and Vedenskoye villages.
The Ukrainian experts associated the previous lull on the Donbass front with local elections in Ukraine and the US presidential elections. Because of uncertain elections results, official Kiev could not build its own line of actions in Donbass.
