Ukrainian Army commanders asking Donbass self-defence to open fire at Azov battalion

Ukrainian Armed Forces’ officers use open communication lines to make contacts with the officers of self-defence forces of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic, in the course of which they ask to open fire at the highly controversial Azov ‘volunteer’ battalions, Eduard Basurin, the spokesman for the DPR Defence Ministry said.

They accompany their requests by references to the battalion’s total uncontrollability.

"Commanders of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to provoke our servicemen for violations of the ceasefire regime," Basurin said. "These army men are asking the officers of the DPR defence forces to open mortar or artillery fire at the positions of the Azov battalion under the pretext that Azov is uncontrollable and mistreats the local population aggressively."

Self-defence units have ignored these provocative appeals until now and continue ignoring them, he indicated.

"It’s highly advisable for the Ukrainian Armed Forces to put things into order within their formations with the aid of their own means and capabilities," Basurin told the Donetsk News Agency.

  2. Kiev traslada tropas y sistemas Grad a la línea de separación, según milicias de Donetsk...

    Los militares ucranianos han trasladado hasta siete grupos tácticos con lanzaderas múltiples Grad a la línea de demarcación en Donbás, declaró el vicecomandante del Estado Mayor de la autoproclamada República Popular de Donetsk, Eduard Basurin.

    A lo largo de la línea de separación, según los datos de la RPD, Kiev desplegó "hasta siete grupos tácticos reforzados con lanzaderas múltiples Grad, que regularmente bombardean nuestros pueblos", dijo Basurin, citado por la Agencia de Noticias de Donetsk.

    Según el representante del Estado Mayor de las milicias, pese a las "numerosas declaraciones de Kiev sobre el cumplimiento de los acuerdos de Minsk, las unidades del Ejército ucraniano y sobre todo de la Guardia Nacional aumentan los bombardeos".

    Agregó que la situación más difícil se observa en Shirókino, Górlovka, Spartak, Nóvaia Márievka y en el aeropuerto de Donetsk.

    Basurin denunció que solo en las últimas 24 horas un miliciano murió y dos civiles resultaron heridos tras ataques realizados por Kiev.

    Destacó que las milicias de Donetsk "no pueden responder de manera adecuada a los militares ucranianos debido a la ausencia de armamento pesado cerca de la línea de separación, ya que fue retirado conforme a los acuerdos de Minsk"........http://sptnkne.ws/fJA

  3. OSCE observers said Monday they have witnessed the most intense shelling in the flashpoint eastern Ukrainian village of Shyrokyne since fighting began there in mid-February, as well as movement of heavy weapons...

    The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which is helping to monitor a cease-fire in Ukraine, said that explosions 300 meters (yards) from one of its observation posts forced its personnel to change location.

    "On 26 April, the SMM [special monitoring mission] observed what it assessed to be the most intense shelling in Shyrokyne... since fighting began in the area in mid-February 2015," the OSCE said in a spot report issued overnight.

    "For the last 12 hours, and on-going at the time of this report, the SMM has observed sporadic to continuous exchanges of fire involving small arms, machine gun, rocket propelled grenade and automatic grenade launcher," the Vienna-based security body said.

    Shyrokyne, near the strategic city of Mariupol, has been the scene of frequent violations of an internationally brokered February ceasefire deal between Ukrainian government forces and pro-Russian separatists........AFP....dailystar.com.lb
