Ukrainian Defense Ministry Hides Information on Losses in the "ATO" Zone

Translated by Ollie Richardson for Fort Russ
12th June, 2016




The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence has denied the information that Ukrainian soldiers were killed in the area of Avdeevka. The department wrote this on Facebook.

“Information on casualties that night - losses in the ranks of the APU is not true!”, the report said.

The Defense Ministry reported that according to the information checked by staff, last night (June 11th) took place without any APU losses, that is, none of the Ukrainian military died.

However, the Donetsk People's Republic, think otherwise, and claim that as a result of an unsuccessful attempt to storm the positions of the DPR, 9 Ukrainian punishers were killed.

10th June, 2016




The beginning of the shelling of DPR territory during the night of the 9th of June coincided with the arrival of a US military diplomats and the deployment of American artillery targeting systems near Avdeevka. This was stated today by Deputy Commander of the Operational Command Denis Sinenkov at a briefing. 

"It should be noted that the provocation coincided within a minute of the deployment of two US radar artillery aiming systems AN-TPQ-48 and AN-TPQ-36," he said.

Sinenkov noted that at the same time, a group of military diplomats were spotted near Avdeevka, "headed by Colonel M. van Devilche and his assistant E. Selfom, accompanied by representatives of the Armed Forces".

"Yesterday's cynical scale of the shelling of settlements of the Republic, which resulted in casualties among civilians and the destruction of homes, was adjusted by unmanned UAF aerial vehicles," said the commander.

Translated by J. Arnoldski



PolitRussia report: 

The former leader of the Ukrainian radical movement “Right Sector”, Dmitry Yarosh, and the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, Nadezhda Savchenko, visited Ukrainian security forces deployed in Avdeevka and Shirkonio and participated in the testing of “experimental weapons.”

“Nadezhda Savchenko visited the bases of the 5th and 8th battalions of the UVA (Ukrainian Volunteer Army, earlier called the Volunteer Ukrainian Corpus “Right Sector”) and tested at the training site a unique experimental weapon whose only existing prototype has been produced in the armory of the UVA,” Yarosh wrote on his Facebook page.

In addition, Yarosh and Savchenko discussed further cooperation on issues of defense, the legalization of volunteers, and the release of Ukrainian prisoners.

PolitNavigator report: 



On June 6th-7th, the people’s deputies Dmitry Yarosh and Nadezhda Savchenko visited the location of Ukrainian units stationed in Avdeevka and Shirokino.

This has been reported on the “Sector of Truth” website of the “Dia” nationalist movement founded by the former leader of Right Sector, Dmitry Yarosh.

“During the visit, the deputies met with the head of the military-civil administration of Avdeevka, Pavel Malykhin,” the report notes. “Nadezhda Savchenko also visited the bases of the 5th and 8th battalions of the UVA and tested at the training site a unique experimental weapon whose only existing prototype has been produced in the armory of the UVA. Fighters of the Ukrainian Volunteer Army and volunteers of the UAF who talked with Nadezhda Savchenko were interested above all in one thing: ‘When will we go on an offensive?’ Nadezhda’s position is quite careful and reasonable. She believes that it is necessary to do everything so that as little Ukrainian blood will be spilled as possible and so that Ukrainian prisoners can be quickly returned home. She supports the conduct of war by means of sabotage groups. She also hopes for the closing of the border with the Russian Federation and the reduction of the Kremlin’s influence on the territory of the so-called ‘LPR-DPR.” 


“Dmitry Yarosh and Nadezhda Savchenko discussed future cooperation on issues of defense, the legalization of volunteers, and the release of Ukrainian prisoners. Only time will tell how fruitful this cooperation will be, but already today it can be said that the two politicians and soldiers found a common language,” the nationalist website emphasizes.

UAF Tortured Own Soldier After Telephone Conversation With Relatives From DPR

Translated by Ollie Richardson for Fort Russ
7th June, 2016




According to intelligence reports, in Avdeevka, a fighter from the 16th punitive Ukrainian battalion was subjected to severe torture for talking on a cell phone with relatives living in the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic, said Eduard Basurin to reporters.

"We have established that on the territory of a concrete structure plant in Avdeevka, a soldier from the 16th battalion of the 58th UAF brigade - Sergey Vyacheslavovich Kondratyuk - was illegally detained, who is suspected of cooperating with the DPR, just because he was speaking by phone with relatives from the territory of the Donetsk Republic. The detainee was brutally tortured – his fingers were heavily damaged by a hammer," said Basurin.

According to him, this case is not the first one in the ranks of the 16th battalion, but the 58th brigade command just recently became aware of numerous cases of ill-treatment by commanders towards their subordinates. Currently, internal closed proceedings are being conducted in the brigade, but its leadership doesn't want to report the incident to higher headquarters, and especially to let this outrageous behaviour to be highlighted in the press.

"If they so sadistically torture their subordinates, then what can we say about the shelling under their orders of residential areas of settlements of the Republic and the killing of  peaceful civilians in the DPR. It is exactly because of these kinds of flayers that the war doesn't stop on the land of Donbass," stressed the representative of the operational command.
