A surge in military attacks this week by NATO-backed Kiev regime forces on the breakaway eastern Ukraine regions is no mere coincidence. It is the reaction to events in Syria by the US-led military alliance in its
hybrid warfare against Russia.
Hundreds of ceasefire breaches by troops belonging to the Ukraine Armed Forces (UAF) are being r
eported in the separatist self-declared republics of Donetsk and Luhansk. Over the past few days, several towns and villages have come under intense
shelling from artillery, rockets and mortars in stark violation of the Minsk agreement.
That
agreement was brokered by Russia, Germany and France during 2014 and 2015, and was meant to facilitate a political settlement between the Western-backed Kiev regime, which came to power in a coup d'état in February 2014, and the breakaway provinces of Donetsk and Luhansk, which refused to recognize the legitimacy of the usurper Kiev cabal.
Houses, schools and water treatment plants have been hit as the UAF and associated Neo-Nazi militias move heavy weaponry close to the so-called contact lines. All indications suggest that the NATO-backed Kiev regime is mobilizing for a renewed offensive on the mainly ethnic Russian Donbas region comprising the Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics.
So far, the militia of the DPR and LPR have repelled the offensive, with dozens of casualties reportedly suffered by the Kiev regime's military.
