“Our intelligence discovered the deployment of a strike group of Ukrainian invaders in the Mariupol direction under the cover of the Storm 2018 exercises.
We record the accumulation of heavy equipment and artillery weapons on the border of the occupied Donetsk region in the area of the settlement. Rozovka. Unit personnel receive ammunition and equipment, and also carry out equipment maintenance before performing a combat mission.
In addition, units of the 56th motorized infantry and 406th artillery brigades arrived in the Urzuf area.
We also continue to record increased aerial reconnaissance by Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles, which continue to be destroyed by our air defense units. Thanks to data obtained from previously shot down UAVs, the facts of the accumulation of equipment and Ukraine’s preparation for an offensive are confirmed,” he said.
In addition, sources of the DPR NM at the headquarters of the Joint Forces Operation and OTG “Vostok” name September 14 as a possible date of the offensive.
“In order to hide the preparations for the start of offensive actions, the enemy intensified the information accusation against us of increasing the number of attacks on their positions, thereby trying to create an information occasion that would untie their hands,” Basurin explained.
“Our units are brought to the highest levels of combat readiness and are ready for any development of the situation, including launching a counter-offensive in the event of an attack from the enemy side.
We call on the world leaders of Western countries to intervene and stop the Poroshenko regime, which is playing into war! Otherwise, this will lead to another round of bloodshed in this civil war, which will bring nothing but grief and tears to the homes of Ukraine and our Republic! Stop before it's too late! Now you will no longer fight with the militia, but with real and trained combat units that have combat experience from 2014-2018,” he addressed the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
