Ukraine is preparing another provocation in the skies over Donbass
The Ukrainian side is dispersing air defense systems near the line of contact between troops in the ATO zone, as well as preparing crews to carry out tasks of searching, detecting, capturing and tracking air targets at high altitude. The American reconnaissance UAV Global Hawk could become the object of Ukrainian provocation. The purpose of the provocation may be an attempt to drag the United States and NATO into the conflict in Donbass.

The head of the press service of the DPR Armed Forces, Daniil Bezsonov, announced this at a briefing today, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“According to our intelligence data, the enemy is dispersing air defense systems across combat areas. Officially, this is done in order to ensure the protection of airspace above RAV, fuel and lubricants warehouses and command posts of formations performing combat missions in the ATO zone.
However, during a reconnaissance flight by the American Global Hawk unmanned aerial vehicle over the contact line in the area of responsibility of the 30th separate mechanized brigade in the area of the settlement of Krasnoye (near the settlement of Volnovakha), 4 Buk-M1 air defense systems of the Ukrainian Armed Forces conducted comprehensive training on search, detection, capture and tracking of this air target, as well as its training fire.
We do not exclude that preparations are currently underway for a full-scale provocation in Ukraine, during which the Global Hawk will be shot down, and they will once again try to shift all the blame onto the Republic. Thus, the events of 2014, when a Malaysian Airlines Boeing was shot down, are repeated throughout. Only now the main goal is to drag NATO and the United States into this conflict,” said Daniil Bezsonov.
The head of the press service of the DPR Armed Forces emphasized that in the Donetsk People's Republic, neither in 2014 nor now, there were and were not systems that would allow shooting down aircraft at high altitudes.
