“At the same time, in Kyiv the “hit list” of leaders and residents of the two republics is regularly replenished,” RG summarizes. – The head of the DPR, Alexander Zakharchenko, also stated that Ukraine is threatening the authorities of the two republics with violence after the assassination attempt on Plotnitsky. It became known that these days an assassination attempt was also being prepared on Zakharchenko and the Minister of Defense of the DPR Vladimir Kononov using a powerful explosive device. The terrorist attack was supposed to take place near the checkpoint of the military unit of the Kalmius unit, but the infernal machine was neutralized in time.”
