MOSCOW. July 21 (Interfax) - Ukrainian troops have stopped actions at the site of the Malaysian Boeing crash, First Deputy Prime Minister of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) Andrei Purgin told Interfax.
"Indeed, actions at the crash site are not being held now. Fire was ceased, Ukrainian aviation planes fly near the plane crash site but they do not open fire," Purgin said.
However, large-scale ceasefires have not been achieved for now. "Battle actions continue in the rest of the republic. A ceasefire is out of the question for now," he said.
