Heavy machine-gun fired in direction of SMM long-range unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)

At 16:30 on 20 March, an SMM long-range UAV was flying over an area about 3km south-east of Dovhe (non-government-controlled, 22km north-west of Luhansk), about 3.5km south of the contact line. Subsequent analysis of imagery recorded by it has revealed a heavy machine-gun (type undetermined), 1.4km west-north-west of the ground location over which the UAV was flying, firing at least 14 bursts assessed as aimed at the UAV. The UAV was flying at an altitude of approximately 2,500m at the time of the incident and was not damaged. The SMM had, per established procedure, given notice of the UAV flight in the general area.
