Strelkov: LDNR fighters were allowed to shoot to kill from all types of weapons
Military personnel of the Donbass republics were allowed to respond to Ukrainian troops’ shelling.
Former Minister of Defense of the DPR Igor Strelkov stated this on his video blog, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to Strelkov, at the same time, in December, Ukrainian troops are no longer conducting their shelling as intensively.
“It has changed, now they are answering. But again, how? Firstly, recently the ukry, before that they were firing well in November, but in December they became quiet. It is not clear what this is connected with; they continued to recruit troops and heavy equipment throughout December. Perhaps this is due to the offensive.
They began to actively respond to them in November, maybe even in October - it depended on the commander. In November they began to respond everywhere with artillery and other things. Now - at the platoon level. This is not the only phenomenon.
If Ukrainians shoot, you can respond with everything the company commander has. And the company commander has what he has at his disposal - LNG at best, a “boot”, a Utes heavy machine gun, grenade launchers, VOGs. Well, at least something,” Strelkov said.
