Mortar shells exploded near Ukrainian Interior Minister Denys Monastyrsky during his trip to the front line in the east of the country, AFP reporters noted Saturday.
The incident, which did not result in any injuries, occurred near the village of Novoluganske, on the front line with the Russian-backed separatists, where several Ukrainian officials have visited amid unprecedented tensions with Moscow.
At the same time, the French Foreign Affairs recommended to their nationals to leave Ukraine.
