The Ukrainian army is a special army, since it bears the imprint of Ukrainian statehood. It so happened that the Right Sector organization, whose leader gained no more than 1% of support for a cut-down Ukraine, completely controls the activities of the SBU. The SBU itself has always been in conflict with the Ministry of Internal Affairs; these conflicts have not only not weakened, but have intensified at this time.

In fact, at the moment there are two strike forces on the so-called. ATO: National Guard and territorial defense battalions and Right Sector. “Right Sector” is a small group that is engaged in security activities in the army - up to the execution of refuseniks, the National Guard is a military organization more numerous than the Right Sector, assembled from Maidan activists and activists of robbery in life - that is, ideologically motivated people.

The National Guard attacks, the Right Sector punishes within the army itself. Ukrainian army - provides transportation, security, and artillery shelling of territories.

Of course, the activities of the “pravosek” cannot arouse approval from the professional military, much less hatred. But the trouble is that there are few real professional military men in Ukraine, everything else is a half-rabble who miraculously have not forgotten about military honor. That is why the small “Right Sector” manages to keep both the command units of the Ukrainian army subordinate and influence the SBU. The recent statement by the SBU about the formation of its own defense units is evidence that there are serious tensions between the “right-wingers” and the National Guard.

Accordingly, these tensions also exist with the leadership of the ATO, which is completely losing control over the conduct of military operations. It's the madmen who get this control. There is chaos in the army. The air raid of our own Mi-24s on our own broken checkpoint near Volnovakha is evidence of this.

War crime in Lugansk

On Monday there was a completely OPEN WAR CRIME. The Su-25 attack aircraft launched a missile strike with unguided missiles on the city center in broad daylight at a time when there were civilians there, who died from it.

The NURS that the Su-25 pilot fired are most likely the same one that bombed Donetsk earlier; this is actually a mini-city. They are uncontrollable, and, therefore, the attack with these weapons on the center of a populated regional center was carried out precisely in order to kill and intimidate the population. This did not happen either in Chechnya or in many other hot spots. This is the extermination of people, and evidence that the command of the so-called. The ATO is completely in the hands of madmen. It is impossible to strike the regional administration from an attack aircraft without an order, and this order WAS there!

Decoding the ATO is now an anti-people terrorist operation, because a missile strike on the residents of Lugansk is an act of intimidation and terror. From a military point of view, it does not have any meaningful military logic, since an air raid is carried out to cover one’s own forces or destroy enemy groups and their firing points. What firing points were there in the park in the center of Lugansk? Which groups were planning to attack the regional administration?

The version of the Ukrainian media about their own attack on themselves by militias from MANPADS is not just a lie, it’s worse - it’s a crazy unprofessional lie, which to refute would only play into the hands of accomplices of war crimes.

Lugansk and Donetsk residents have only one way of salvation - the formation of a single center of military command and the reformatting of militia combat groups into a military group, that is, the transition to the formation of an army, their own armed forces. In addition, the leadership of the LPR and DPR has the right to demand that Russia provide a no-fly zone over the regions - for now this is the only way out of the situation.

Well, war crimes against civilians have no statute of limitations. This is worth reminding the Ukrainian military. The criminals will definitely be punished.
