that the army of the self-proclaimed republic has been brought to
full alert to reflect the possible attack of the Armed Forces of
Ukraine.

preparation of a large-scale offensive from the Ukraine, the units of
the republic’s armed forces were staffed. According to
Basurin, they were also provided with the necessary weapons,
equipment and ammunition.

positions, and anti-tank barriers were also installed. Key

Reports
over the past week have indicated that Russia is deploying military
forces near the Ukrainian border, and a new intelligence analysis
indicates that Russia may be preparing to strike.
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) released a new weekly intelligence summary on Tuesday entitled “Russia in Review,” in which they assessed Russia’s recent mobilization of troops and military equipment, and concluded that Russia is preparing a strike against Ukraine.
“The Russian military is now preparing its forces for direct military involvement,” the ISW said. “The Kremlin is reinforcing ground, naval, and air elements in its Southern Military District – the command likely responsible for managing its ongoing war in Ukraine. Moscow may calculate that the international community will not meaningfully respond if the visibility of its role in the war now increases.”
The ISW also warned that Russia has mobilized troops and equipment under the guise of military exercises. However, the next exercise, Center-2019, is not scheduled to begin until September 2019.
“This early start to the exercises is atypical and may signal preparation for open conflict with Ukraine under the auspices of military exercises. Russia has previously used military exercises as cover to prepare for offensive operations,” the ISW warned.

First
Deputy Chairman of Duma Committee on CIS Affairs and Relations with
Compatriots, Konstantin Zatulin, at a press conference in Moscow said
that Russia will withdraw from the Minsk Agreement, if
the Ukrainian military continues offensive.
"Code
200" heard occasionally now on Russian military radio
frequencies. (HT
REMARK: My
Russian radio coding is a bit rusty buts its along the lines of "put
on your adult diapers and prepare to vomit with fear.")
Cargo
200 is a military code word used in the
former Soviet Union and the post-Soviet
states referring to the transportation
of casualties. Officially, the term Cargo
200 is military jargon to refer specifically to
the corpses of soldiers contained
in zinc-lined coffins for air transportation.
Unofficially, Cargo 200 is used to refer to all
bodies of the dead being transported away from the battlefield, and
as a euphemism for irreversible losses of manpower in a
conflict.
INTEL
intel
says Russia deployed 100 additional fighter jets to Crimea over the
course of this week. This is another strong indication of
planned military action by Russia if Ukraine attacks civilian areas
in Donetsk and Luhansk (as they seem to be doing tonight.)
