Kiev accused Donbass of targeting their positions after the order of the head of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) to destroy Ukrainian engineering structures near the demarcation line. This is reported by the “Observer” edition with reference to the press headquarters of the Joint Forces Operation (JF).
They claim that the DPR army fired on Ukrainian positions near the city of Krasnogorovka, firing three rounds of VOG-17s. It is reported that a soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was injured. According to the OOS, this happened on the 42nd day of the full ceasefire.
On September 5, Pushilin said that the Ukrainian side did not comply with the justified demands of the DPR and did not eliminate the violations. “In this regard, I officially declare that in accordance with paragraph” e “of the additional measures, I decided to issue an order to open fire on illegally erected engineering structures in the Shumy settlement area,” Pushilin said. He specified that the authorities of the self-proclaimed republic will send an official notification of their decision to the Contact Group.
In the context of these statements, Kiev urgently requested new negotiations with Donbass.
In 2014, part of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions declared their independence after the change of power in Ukraine. Kiev tried to return them by force and accuses Russia of occupation. The Kremlin rejects the claim.
