France and Germany offered to deploy drones as part of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE)'s efforts to monitor Ukraine's ceasefire, a government official said on Monday.

At a daily news briefing, Foreign Ministry's spokesperson Romain Nadal announced "France and Germany have proposed to provide drones aimed at monitoring the ceasefire's implementation as requested by the OSCE."

The drone deployment proposal was being discussed, he added without elaborating.

"The cease-fire is an important opportunity to find a lasting political solution to the conflict and which respects Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity," Nadal noted.

Earlier this month, the rival camps in Ukraine agreed to cease fire but fighting in eastern Ukraine continued.
