According to him, Ukraine strictly adheres to the Minsk agreements, and the use of Turkish Bayraktar TB2 drones was a response to artillery shelling by the Russian occupation forces.
“Wait, I don’t see anything about the violation of the Minsk agreements. Perhaps I did not read it carefully. The Germans called on the parties for restraint, I saw it. And Bayraktar TB2 is not prohibited by the Minsk agreements. We strictly adhere to the Minsk agreements, and the unmanned aerial vehicle was used for the defeat of the Russian artillery, “Aleksey Arestovich continued and added that the day before, the occupation formations had killed a soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the shelling, and another soldier was wounded.
The speaker of the Ukrainian delegation to the TCG also said that there was no exacerbation in the JFO zone, but there was a “separate combat episode” that stopped after the drone fired.

First use of Bayraktar TB2 – timeline of events
Note that the first use of Bayraktar TB2 in Donbass was commented on by the German Foreign Ministry. Representative of the diplomatic service Andrea Sasse at the briefing stated that Germany is concerned about the increasing number of ceasefire violations and the fact that drones are used by all parties to the armed conflict.
“In recent weeks, the OSCE SMM has recorded an increase in the number of ceasefire violations, heavy weapons were used. This violates the Minsk Agreements, which Russia and Ukraine have pledged to abide by. In addition, all parties use UAVs, which can only be done by the OSCE SMM in accordance with the Minsk Agreements. We again call on all parties to de-escalate, “Andrea Sasse emphasized and added that Bayraktar TB2 was used in response to the death of a Ukrainian soldier after the shelling.
The Kremlin reacted to the use of the APU attack drone Bayraktar TB2. Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov said that deliveries of Turkish UAVs to Ukraine could lead to destabilization on the line of contact.
Previously Focus reported about first application of Bayraktar TB2 in Donbass … Fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine used a Turkish attack drone after artillery shelling from the side of the Russian occupation formations. Bayraktar TB2 managed to track down the enemy battery and destroy one gun.
