Is Kiev planning a new offensive in Donbass?

Will Ukraine Launch a New Donbass Offensive This Summer?
Russia is warning that Kiev may launch a new offensive against supporters of the self-proclaimed republics in the Donbass region of eastern Ukraine. Moscow is urging Paris and Berlin to put pressure on the Ukrainian authorities to prevent a potential renewal of violence

Originally appeared at Russia Beyond the Headlines

As hostilities threaten to break out again in eastern Ukraine, Moscow is warning that Kiev may be on the verge of launching a new offensive against the self-proclaimed rebel republics in the region.
At a meeting with the German and French ambassadors on July 6, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin told them that heightened tensions in the Donbass indicate that the Ukrainian troops are preparing for action to try and take back territory occupied by Russian-backed rebels as part of a two-year-old conflict with the central government in Kiev.
Karasin urged the two ambassadors, who represent the two countries whose leaders – alongside the presidents of Russia and Ukraine – form the four-party negotiating group for resolving the Donbass crisis, “to exercise their influence to put pressure on Kiev in order to prevent a military scenario…”
On the following day, the situation in eastern Ukraine was discussed in a telephone conversation between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his U.S. counterpart Barack Obama.
This time, a similar appeal was made to the Russian leader in relation to the rebel regimes in Donetsk and Lugansk, which enjoy Moscow’s patronage. Obama asked Putin to “take measures to end the significant uptick in fighting in eastern Ukraine.”
Fears regarding a dramatic increase in hostilities in the Donbass were voiced not only in Russia but in Ukraine too. Kiev linked this eventuality to the Kremlin’s desire to destabilize the situation in Ukraine as a whole and in the Donbass in particular. Ukrainian parliamentary speaker Andrei Parubiy said that Moscow may be tempted to do it against the backdrop of “the U.S. election and the crisis in the EU.”
Rise in ceasefire violations
There is no doubt in any quarters that tensions along the contact line in the Donbass have risen recently. According to media reports, over the past several weeks, reports of shelling in the region have risen by a third, while the OSCE is also reporting more frequent ceasefire violations.
At the same time, Russian experts do not believe there are grounds to say that the Ukrainian military are preparing a large-scale offensive on the rebel-held areas of the Donbass.
According to Vladimir Yevseyev, deputy head of the CIS Institute, “one should not be saying that Kiev is deploying a large number of troops.” Rather, he said, one could talk of acts of provocation staged by radicals (there are many fighters from volunteer detachments at the contact line known for their radical views) who are keen to see relations between Russia and the West deteriorate.
Viktor Murakhovsky, a military expert and editor-in-chief of the Arsenal Otechestva (Arsenal of the Fatherland) magazine, told RBTH that he had no data to confirm that the Ukrainian side is preparing “a large-scale military action.”
Meanwhile, Alexander Khramchikhin, deputy head of the Moscow-based Institute of Political and Military Analysis, pointed out that despite the lack of reports that Kiev is preparing an offensive, hostilities in Donbass have never really stopped and a real war “could flare up once again at any moment.”
Khramchikhin attributes this to the fact that neither of the parties is satisfied with the status quo – both Kiev and the rebel regions would like to have more.
Pointless outcome’
Russia continued its attempts to appeal to Germany and France on July 8, this time at a more senior level.
In a telephone conversation with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande, Vladimir Putin urged them to put pressure on Kiev to get the Ukrainian military to end “actions of provocative nature.”
Murakhovsky pointed out that “the Ukrainian side from time to time uses local operations to train its units, including with the use of heavy weaponry.”
This is particularly relevant for the volunteer battalions, he added, citing recent clashes near the key railway junction of Debaltseve, previously held by Ukrainian forces but controlled by the rebels since February 2015.
In the action, two companies of Ukrainian government troops tried to occupy the neutral zone but were repelled and had to retreat, Murakhovsky explained.
From the military point of view, the outcome [of that operation] was absolutely pointless,” he said.

Warnings of a Ukrainian attack on Novorussia

Strelkov: UAF will attack when Putin is in New York



September 2, 2015


Translated by Kristina Rus

Strelkov: urgent about the military situation — UAF is almost finished concentrating the forces to attack


Ex-defense Minister of Donetsk People's Republic Igor Strelkov gave a brief forecast of the military situation on the basis of personal analysis of available data.


Currently Ukrainian army is almost finished concentrating forces for the planned offensive.


At the sites selected for the direction of the main strike (to the south of Donetsk), their superiority over the opposing units of 
NAF is estimated as 5-fold. Hidden behind a deeply layered system of defence, UAFformation has a distinct offensive configuration.

At the front, exploration of the positions of LDPR army is actively underway. Moreover, it is conducted by professional scout groups (presumably — PMCs). The number of drones and tools of electronic warfare involved by the ukro-military is impressive. At the front, considerable reserves of ammunition for all types of weapons are concentrated.


Available UAF forces are enough to defeat the opposing "corps of the people's militia" in a week or two, and already 
in the first day of the attack profound breakthroughs with access to rear communications can be achieved.

The offensive can have a "general" character (aimed at accessing the border with Russia throughout its entire length and subsequent total destruction of the republics), and limited, whose goal may be the seizure of the southern part of DPR and vital infrastructure, without which even a partial economic autonomy of Donbass will be impossible.


A full-scale assault should be expected before the muddy fall season and, thus, UAF has no more than a month and a half left.


And taking into account the need not only to begin, but to complete the main operation before the onset of autumn rasputitsa [muddy season - rus.], the start date is limited by the range of September 20-25. If the offensive will not begin in the specified period, with high probability it will be possible to predict the freezing of the existing status quo before the onset of winter frost.


However, the postponement of the operation is possible, but unlikely, as the deteriorating economic and political situation of the Kiev junta does not guarantee the opportunity to gather an equally powerful group to attack six months later.


The most suitable time for attack (putting yourself in the enemy's shoes) appears to be the time of the visit of Vladimir Putin to New York to the session of the UN General Assembly (20th of September) — this way the effect of massive pressure from the so-called "international community" at the moment of making a strategic decision about the provision of or failure to render military aid to LDPR, or on the extent of the aid, can be achieved.

Let me remind you that the "War of 08.08.08", and the decisive events of the "Revolution of 'Gidnost' " were made at a time when Vladimir Putin was outside of Moscow (in China and at the Sochi Olympics).

America beating the war drums in Ukraine

"If all else fails go to war"

Things are deteriorating very quickly in Ukraine and as the economy and financial systems collapses the US is looking to war.
Stephen Cohen says Obama is on the phone with Poroshenko, Yatsenyuk and others 3 times a week - Geoffrey Pyatt probably daily.

The Saker will be preoccupied with other matters right now as a deadly tropical cyclone bears down on Florida.

BREAKING - UAF Massively shelling DPR - Drastic Deterioration


27 August, 2015


RusVesna - translated for Fort Russ by J. Arnoldski

Emergency statement: UAF massively shelling DPR, Poroshenko intends to resume hostilities — Ministry of Defence”

On the evening of August 26, DPR Deputy Commander, Eduard Basurin, made an emergency statement: “The situation in the DPR has drastically deteriorated.


The Kiev fascist regime has given the criminal order to shell our territories.

As a result, from 5 P.M. punitive forces began massively shelling positions of the DPR army and the civilian areas of Belaya Kamenka, Novolaspa, Staroslava, and Staroignatovka.

The fascists have used heavy artillery prohibited by the Minsk Agreements against the civilian areas of Aleksandrovka and Marinka. The outskirts of Donetsk have been struck.

The shelling has been carried out from the positions of the 72nd mechanized brigade under the command of the criminal Grishchenko, as well as the 19th infantry battalion. The enemy is using ACS howitzers of 152 and 122 mm, mortars of 120 and 80 mm, and tanks.

A residential block in the Kubyshevsky district of Donetsk suffered a direct hit from a fascist tank.

According to our estimate, the enemy is trying to provoke a response by our troops and with such activity convince the army command of the DPR to prepare for an offensive in this direction of the UAF.

It is safe to say that the criminal fascist regime is purposefully trying to disrupt the Minsk Agreement. The bloodthirsty Kiev puppets are out to disrupt the establishment of peaceful life in the Republic, thereby showing the whole world their inability to conduct civilized negotiations. The paranoiacs in power are leading Ukraine into the abyss!

The President of Ukraine seeks to resume hostilities and lead a new escalation of tensions in Eastern Europe, and therefore, we appeal to the people and officers of Ukraine: sabotage the criminal orders of the UAF command, show acts of defiance, and demonstrate an absence of support for the aggressive plans of Poroshenko.

Come over to the side of the DPR, stand with us to protect the civilian population of Donbass!

We call on the leaders of European countries and Russia, as well as international organizations, to stop the criminal actions of Poroshenko in Donbass, by which the Ukrainian president seeks to unleash a new conflict in Eastern Europe and drown Donbass in blood!” - Eduard Basurin stated.


Экстренное заявление: ВСУ ведут массированные обстрелы ДНР, Порошенко намерен возобновить боевые действия, — Минобороны (ВИДЕО) | Русская весна

Сегодня вечером, 26 августа, заместитель Командующего корпусом ДНР Эдуард Басурин сделал экстренное заявление: «Обстановка в Донецкой Народной Республике резко обострилась.

Киевский фашистский режим отдал преступный приказ на обстрелы наших территорий.

В результате чего, каратели с 17 часов начали массированные обстрелы позиций армии ДНР и гражданских объектов в районе населенных пунктов Белая Каменка, Новоласпа, Староласпа и Староигнатовка.

Фашисты применили запрещенную Минскими договоренностями тяжелую артиллерию, в том числе, по мирным населенным пунктам Александровка и Марьинка. Ударам подверглись окраины города Донецка.

Обстрелы ведутся с позиций 72 отдельной механизированной бригады под управлением преступника Грищенко, и 19 отдельного мотопехотного батальона. Противник применяет САУ и гаубицы 152 мм, 122 мм, минометы 120 мм и 80 мм, а также танки.

В Куйбышевском районе города Донецка отмечается прямое попадание из танка фашистов в жилую пятиэтажку.

По нашим оценкам, противник пытается спровоцировать наши войска на ответные действия, а также своей активностью убедить командование армии ДНР в готовящимся на этом направлении наступлении ВСУ.

Можно смело говорить, что преступный фашистский режим целенаправленно пытается сорвать Минские договоренности. Кровожадные киевские марионетки всеми силами стремятся нарушить процесс налаживания мирной жизни в Республике, тем самым показывая всему миру несостоятельность вести цивилизованные переговоры. Параноики у власти ведут Украину в пропасть!

Президент Украины стремится возобновить боевые действия и привести к новой эскалации напряженности на Востоке Европы, в связи с чем, обращаемся к народу и офицерам Украины, саботируйте преступные приказы командования ВСУ, проявляйте акты неповиновения, демонстрируйте отсутствие поддержки агрессивных планов Порошенко.

Переходите на сторону армии ДНР, станьте вместе с нами на защиту мирного населения Донбасса!

Призываем лидеров европейских государств и России, а также международные организации, остановить преступные действия Порошенко на Донбассе, которыми президент Украины стремится развязать новый конфликт на Востоке Европы и утопить Донбасс в крови!» — заявил Эдуард Басурин.


The Great Stephen Cohen on Meaning of Merkel-Poroshenko (Audio Podcast)
Also talks about Henry Kissinger opposing US orthodoxy on Ukraine, and Putin's continous policy of de-Stalinization


27 August, 2015


America’s largest radio network, WABC.

He has Stephen Cohen on live in the studio almost every week for a full 45 minute segment, the only guest he gives that much time to.


Why? Because Cohen’s appearances are killing the ratings. 

America seems to be thirsting for an alternative and critical view of Obama’s Russia policy.




Nation contributing editor Stephen F. Cohen and John Batchelor continue their weekly discussions of the new cold war.

This installment focuses on different but related recent developments.

According to Cohen, by summoning Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to Berlin, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and French President François Hollande made clear that the US-backed government in Kiev, not Moscow, is blocking implementation of their Minsk plan for negotiating an end to the Ukrainian civil war.

By publicly rejecting several premises of US policy, Dr. Henry Kissinger has breached the political-media orthodoxy that Putin’s Russia alone is responsible for the new cold war.

And by enacting a law mandating the memorialization of Stalin’s millions of victims, in popular culture and in public institutions, Putin has taken a step first called for by Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev 54 years ago, and has done so despite “bitter resentment” on the part of many of today’s Russian officials, intellectuals, and millions of citizens.

He has also defied Putin-phobic assertions in the West that he is reviving the worst traditions of Russia’s Soviet past.

Ukrainian attack on Novorussia imminent

Is an Ukronazi attack imminent? Yes! So what else is new?




Novorussian officials have called a press conference today to warn about the high risks of an Ukronazi assault on Novorussia in the very near future.  I have asked our translation team and friends to subtitle the video of this press conference and I hope to get it in the next 24 hours or less.

The press conference was unique in that Edward Basurin, the Deputy Defense Minister and spokesman for the Novorussian armed forces showed a map with what he described as the Ukrainian attack plans:
Ukie plan of attack on Novorussia
While I don’t doubt for one second that the Novorussians have pretty much near perfect intelligence about the situation in the Nazi-occupied Ukraine and the plans of the junta (all that provided courtesy of the Russian GRU), I have to say that what this maps shows is extremely predictable too and not fundamentally different from what the Ukronazis tried last year: surrounding and cutting off Donetsk from Lugansk and taking control of key parts (or even all) of the Ukrainian-Russian border.  Basurin also quoted the figures for the junta forces and those are in line with what others, including Cassad, have reported.  The Ukronazi force is most definitely numerically large.
Basurin also warned that the attack would be preceded by a false flag attack organized by the junta and blamed on the Novorussians.  Again, nothing new here.
To be honest, we are all getting used to ‘cry wolf’ about an impending Ukronazi attack.  And this is hardly our fault.  Such an attack has, indeed, been impending for a long while already and the junta’s bellicose rhetoric has only reinforced this sense of imminent danger.  Furthermore, the recent visit of the British Defense Minister in Kiev only made things worse as the junta always does something ugly when western dignitaries visit Kiev.  Add to this that Poroshenko is scheduled to meet with his German and French counterparts next week and the sense of crisis will be total.  And logically so.
So while the tensions are real and definitely based in reality, they are also nothing new here, really.  You could also legitimately that all this panic is nothing else but business as usual and that it will remain so until the regime of Nazi freaks in Kiev is finally replaced by something more or less civilized.  This will inevitably happen but, alas, not in the near future.
So we are left with this exhausting and frustrating situation where yet another Ukronazi attack might happen anytime but where it also might not.  That is the inevitable consequence of having evil, weak and insecure psychopaths in charge of an entire country.
Yesterday a rumor was started indicating that the Novorussians were planning to organize a referendum to join Russia.  I still don’t know if that rumor is based in reality or not, but I will note that this kind of rumor could also serve as a perfect pretext for a Ukronazi attack.
It is clear to me that something has to give, probably soon.  The Ukrainian economy is dead, the stocks of basic goods and energy for next winter are empty, the country is in ruins and social tensions are on the raise everywhere.  I personally cannot image that regime change could happen in Kiev before at least one more attack on Novorussia.  The junta really has nothing left to lose and by massing a large attack force, regardless of how ill prepared this force is, and at least the theoretical such an attack could possibility draw Russia in and, thereby, save the Ukronazi junta in Kiev.
Nobody in Kiev is seriously thinking that they can occupy Donetsk or Lugansk or pacify the Donbass.  Everybody is pretending otherwise, but that ain’t happening.   Everybody in Kiev is fully aware of the fact that the Donbass is lost forever.  So I will repeat this again: the real purpose of an attack will not be to ‘reconquer’ Novorussia, it will be to draw Russia into the Donbass.  How?
Well, in theory, if the junta can launch enough men and armor to overwhelm the Novorussian defenses and if these forces succeed in surrounding Donetsk and Lugansk, Russia will really have no other option than to intervene.  Of course, the Russians will easily defeat the Ukronazi forces, in 24 hours or less, but at that point the Nazi regime in Kiev will be saved: it will be able to declare full mobilization, blame every difficulty in Russia, crush any resistance with even more brutality than before and politically force all the US allies to provide aid to the regime in Kiev.  The regime itself, by the way, would be safe as, contrary to the hopes of many, the Russians will not push much beyond the current line of contact.  At most they will liberate Mariupol and or Slaviansk/Kramatrosk as a “penalty” for the Ukronazi attack.  The junta in Kiev will remain safe, at least from the Russians.
The real danger for the junta does not come from the Russian military, but from the disillusioned and impoverished Ukrainian people with whom the regime will remain “one on one” unless the Russians intervene.  And as long as this situation will remain like this, a Ukronazi attack will possibly atany moment.  Starting right now.

News from Ukraine / Novorussia

Donetsk PM Zakharchenko : " Minsk agreements are torn apart, Kiev will attack us soon"

Kiev Gathers Huge 65,000-Strong Army on Frontline Near Donetsk

With the Minsk ceasefire agreements formally still in force, the situation in eastern Ukraine's Donbass region remains extremely tense amid reports about Kiev's mass troop deployments in the area.

Sputnik News,
19 August, 2015

In violation of the Minsk ceasefire agreements, the Armed Forces of Ukraine has deployed heavy weapons and a large number of troops to the frontline in eastern Ukraine's Donbass region, Russian media outlets said.

The reports came amid intensified artillery shelling exchanges between the warring sides in the area, including near the city of Mariupol.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine has deployed a considerable number of men along the entire frontline, estimated to comprise of about 65,000 soldiers and officers of different subordination, level of training and motivation.

This number includes between 68 and 70 battalions, comprised of 26 battalion groups plus separate company units.

The Ukrainian army's General Staff finally shifted to the battalion group tactics, reshuffling various kinds of troops after defeat in Debaltsevo.

Given this development, the army's recent shelling of the village of Sartana on the outskirts of Mariupol can be seen as nothing more than an attempt to drill the interaction of these battalion groups.

Right now, several army brigades remain on the frontline, including the 24th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade and the 92nd Motorized Infantry Brigade, armed with eighteen Grad multiple launch rocket systems and self-propelled artillery platforms, as well as six tanks, ten armored personnel carriers, six howitzers, anti-aircraft guns, plus lots of small arms and anti-tank weapons.

The army's air assault troops are represented by the elite 80th brigade, which suffered heavy losses during fighting near Lugansk airport last year.

These troops also comprise the 122nd separate battalion and the 95th separate airmobile brigade and the 25th brigade, which is equipped with mothballed armored personnel carriers, including the BTR-70.

The battalion groups include a whole array of company units related to tank, artillery, marine and National Guard troops as well as special units of the Ukrainian Interior Ministry.

All of these brigades form a 65,000-strong army, which includes more than 400 tanks, about 2,400 armored vehicles, 132 Grad multiple launch rocket systems and over 800 guns and mortars.

The current situation is reminiscent of autumn 2014, which also saw heavy shelling between the conflicting parties and the massive deployment of troops near the frontline.

Compared to last year, however, the situation on the current frontline remains more stable despite a spate of hot spots in the area and the increasing accumulation of troops and heavy weapons there


East Ukraine's Donetsk Republic Will Hold Referendum To Join Russia




Following the 2014 Crimean referendum which saw the Black Sea peninsula join Russia shortly after the Ukraine presidential coup and ensuing territorial conflict between pro-Kiev and pro-Moscow regions, many speculated it is only a matter of time before the Donetsk region, subsequently elevated into People's Republic status, which has been engaged in constant warfare with the Kiev army (which is in such bad shape it recently drafted a disabled man without arms) would follow suit.

We now have the answer.

Having waited for over a year for the Ukraine civil war/conflict to be relegated to back page status, if that, Putin has finally given the green light, and as Xinhua reportsleaders of the self-proclaimed "Donetsk People's Republic" are planning to hold a referendum on seceding from Ukraine and joining Russia, the Donetsk-based Ostrov news agency reported Wednesday.

The referendum is scheduled to take place some in early to mid November, or specifically two to four weeks after the Oct. 18 local elections, said the news agency.

The ballot papers for the referendum designed in the colors of the Russian flag have already been printed, it said.

And while neither the rebel leadership nor the Ukrainian authorities have commented on the report yet, the modus operandi is strikingly familiar to what happened in Crimea.

Should Donetsk indeed proceed with a popular secession vote, the result is virtually assured but the bigger question is just how would Europe react considering this would result in another territorial expansion of Russia which would be accused of annexing a region that Kiev has largely given up even pretending it has control over.

In July, leaders of pro-independence insurgents in Donetsk region said they would hold local elections on Oct. 18 without Kiev's supervision as they believed that the Ukrainian government has not fulfilled its obligations under the Minsk peace agreement.

Last week, violence in eastern Ukraine has sharply escalated after several weeks of relative calmness. On Sunday night, at least 11 people, including nine civilians, were reportedly killed in Donetsk region, marking the worst casualties in the conflict since early June.

Then again, after the recent referendum farce in Greece in which a substantial majority of the population voted for one thing just to get the opposite, maybe history is about to rhyme a few hundred kilometers northeast of Athens


Donbass citizens to become Russians


Donbass citizens to become Russians. Donbass
''Ukrainian structures closed everything long ago. There is nothing there. And the new Republics are recognized only by some states. That is why any Republican documents even notarized and certified with LPR or DPR seals will not pass in Russia. I believe Ukraine faces collapse and a parade of sovereignties in the near future. Then these new entities will be recognized by other states.

Donetsk and Lugansk regions are historical territories of the Russian Federation. They even used to be part of the Rostov region. So, we'll have to carry out a referendum once again. Then it will be not only possible to enter Russia, but to adhere to the Rostov region.

Donbass may also enter the Russian Federation as a single entity. It is evident that about 95 per cent will vote for at the referendum, as it was shown in the Crimea. Present Ukraine demonstrated that it can only annihilate people.

Those living in Donbass are very hard-working people, hard labour in metallurgy, coal and chemical industries have been present there for generations. Donbass will boost Russian economy, as it used to be a fount of minerals and ore minerals in the former Soviet Union. Ukraine just did not have money and technologies, as well as any desire to develop Donbass. In Russia it is possible.

From the very beginning people were sure 300 per cent that they would go after the Crimea, but it did not happen, the Americans hindered them. Nevertheless, people still believe that the militants will liberate Donbass from the Nazis, then the referendum will take place, and they will return back home to their Motherland. And their Motherland is Russia, this territory just was passed to Ukraine, and people living there were not asked of their opinion.

At the beginning of the XX century, when there was famine in Russia, Lugansk people called for collecting and sending aid. There are even appropriate posters of those times in the Russian museums. Donbass rescued poor, starving and struggling regions. It was in 1915, just 100 years ago. We have always been a part of Russia and lived for Russia.''


Is Ukraine On The Cusp Of A Real Uprising?





It’s been discussed since the civil war first began last spring, but Ukraine might finally be on the verge of a legitimate people’s uprising against the government. The Color Revolutions in 2004 and 2014 were organized from abroad (despite the misleading mass media representation that they were popular movements) and aimed to achieve concrete geopolitical objectives on behalf of the West, thereby discrediting them as real grassroots actions and exposing their ulterior nature. Although Ukraine has thus far not experienced a single genuine (as in organized by Ukrainians and for Ukrainians) revolution to date, it doesn’t mean that one couldn’t be forthcoming, as all the proper ‘ingredients’ are currently in effect. Three recent developments indicate that the country is a lot closer to a real revolution than most observers might believe, and if the people take the initiative in seizing the opportunity in front of them, they might have a chance at reversing some of the regime’s most disastrous policies before it’s ultimately too late.

The Anna Tuv Story - Warcrimes in
Gorlovka (Trailer)

A young Australian amateur filmmaker named Chris Nolan who has been posting excellent short films to Youtube for over a year now, describing the Kiev revolution (Maidan), and the ensuing war.

Nolan is a musician in a rock band in Brisbane who makes the films in his free time using footage he finds on the internet.

In his latest film, he tells the story of Anna Tuv who has become a hero in the global anti-Kiev community and in Russia. Tuv lost her husband, two children, and her arm when her house was shelled. She is just one of thousands who suffered similar horrors. Her personal story has become a symbol of the insane criminality being pushed by Kiev, and indirectly by Obama, Merkel and Cameron.
