Serious escalation in the shellings by Russian troops and her mercenaries against infrastructure ----Ukrainian owned coking plant. This coking plant is the largest in all of Europe and it's shutdown would have a very negative impact across Europe.
If a coking plant has to and or is forced to come to a full standstill at anytime in the coking process one might as well simply teardown the plant and rebuild--it is like molten iron/steel being produced and allowed to cool down/harden in the smelting vats.

Just a side suggestion to the Russian GRU--before you send your recon teams on their mission sets you should actually SEARCH them and sanitize the entire team. What they did with OPSEC was totally "unprofessional"--kind of dents their SF reputation.
On the smart phone of the captured intel/recon SGT were 13 photos of his entire team.

Russia intelligence service coordinates militant Grad, Uragan attacks in Donbas – SBU
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has accused the Main Intelligence Directorate Russian General Staff of the Armed Forces of coordinating the attacks of militants using missile artillery on Ukrainian military personnel and civilians in Donbas.
"We clearly see that special forces of the Main Intelligence Directorate [of the Russian General Staff] set all conditions and provide [the militants with] missile artillery and Grad and Uragan [multiple rocket launchers], which arrive from Russian territory to shell both the Ukrainian armed forces, as well as the peaceful population [of civilians in Donbas]," head of the SBU counter-intelligence department Vitaliy Naida said.
He presented two documents dated September 12-26, and September 14-17, 2014 to back up his position.
"The processed information proves that through this period a number of Ukrainian populated areas have been shelled with missile artillery. Ukrainian troops haven't been located in all these residential areas. The special units of the Russian Main Intelligence Directorate provide bombing of the civilian population of Ukraine and we blame the Main Intelligence Directorate General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces for this," he said.
Agree with the author's comments that the emerging eastern bloc of nations presents both for themselves and the EU an interesting future as they really will be an eventual and logical bridge for Russia to come out of the Cold.
BUT it requires from the EU leadership at the national levels that just might not be there some open and forward thinking for Europe in the coming years and what it wants to be.

EU Can Win the Battle for Its Eastern NeighborsBy Vladislav Inozemtsev
May. 21 2015 19:14
Last edited 19:15
The Eastern Partnership summit began in Riga yesterday. It brings together six former Soviet republics that are striving, in various degrees, to cooperate with the European Union.
This is the second such summit, and it is not expected to produce the same drama or fateful results as the first did in Vilnius in November 2013, when former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych made the worst choice of his life — one that led to his eventual ouster and to the current confrontation between Russia and the West.
However, this presents a good occasion to think seriously about the long-term orientation and direction of the European Neighborhood Policy.
It is clear that Europe and Russia are now unwilling to compromise over their joint "near abroad." Moscow holds no formal veto power over a single member state in the Eastern Partnership program, with the possible exception of Belarus, which has pledged itself to forming a unified state with Russia.
The European Union also faces no formal restrictions to incorporating new members, as long as they respect EU norms and values as spelled out in Article 49 of the Lisbon Treaty. As a result, all of the westernmost former Soviet republics will eventually become part of a larger Europe. The only questions are: When will it happen? At what price? What consequences will follow?
In this context, if two points were declared at the upcoming summit, they would send an important signal to Eastern Partnership states as well as to Russia.
First, the EU should clearly state that each member of the Eastern Partnership is a potential member of the European Union. Brussels launched that program without adequate preparation and used it as a palliative measure designed more to delay the entry of new EU member states than to expedite it.
The Europeans did not expect such a harsh reaction from Russia, but they definitely bear much of the responsibility for the recent events in Eastern Europe. In effect, the Eastern Partnership program set in motion a chain reaction that the EU cannot and should not stop — primarily because the composition of that strange political bloc gives Europeans great freedom to maneuver.
The Eastern Partnership program is currently focusing on Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine. Moldova is moving forward and has received visa-free status with the EU.
Both Georgia and Ukraine hope to receive the same. Of course, cooperation with Ukraine might proceed at the slowest pace, but most important under the current circumstances is not to stop the process — and considering the different sizes of the participating states, that is not such a difficult task.
For example, Moldova, with a population of 3.5 million and a gross domestic product of $11.5 billion — 0.55 percent and 0.07 percent of the European Union's population and GDP respectively — could receive candidate status in the near future and formally accede to the EU as early as 2020-22.
That act would have nothing more than symbolic significance: it will present only a marginal expense for Europe and almost one-third of Moldova's adult population has already relocated in recent years to EU states anyway.
In one or two years, Georgia could receive candidate status and a visa-free regime: it has firm control over its borders, especially its borders with Russia and the separatist regions. Georgia is geographically not a part of Europe, and so its accession to the EU is somewhat debatable, although Tbilisi is perfectly capable of demonstrating that the country is moving toward European standards and norms.
If Ukraine implements the necessary reforms, it could also receive guarantees that its accession to the EU is both possible and desirable. Thus, by integrating Moldova at minimal cost and issuing formal promises to Georgia and Ukraine, the European Union could shift public opinion among Eastern European countries in its favor and strengthen pro-European sentiment in Belarus and Armenia.
Second, the EU could state clearly and unambiguously that it is abandoning its policy of refusing to discuss candidate status for any country plagued by internal conflicts. In fact, with the exception of Belarus, every Eastern Partnership country is struggling with separatist movements.
In the case of Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine, Moscow is clearly inspiring and supporting those movements, and only for that reason has it proven impossible to resolve them. But by rescinding its current policy, the EU would remove the incentive for Moscow to interfere and would thereby make a major contribution to establishing peace among the former Soviet republics.
Although Moscow routinely claims that nothing can change the mood of the freedom-loving citizens of the self-proclaimed republic of Transdnestr and the Donbass, some facts call that into doubt.
For example, within one year of Moldova reaching agreement with the EU for a visa-free regime, 74,000 residents of Transdnestr — or one-fourth of that self-proclaimed republic's population — applied for and received Moldovan passports. And if Moldova's chances of joining the EU solidify, Transdnestr might abandon its claims of "independence" overnight.
In the same way, it is unlikely that residents of Abkhazia and South Ossetia will take so much pride in their Russian passports if Georgia manages to secure a visa-free regime with the EU. Throughout the post-Soviet period, the Kremlin has used "managed instability" in neighboring countries as a means of ensuring that they do not leave Russia's sphere of influence — and that goal has spurred Moscow to maintain the potential for internal conflicts there.
If the EU were to announce its readiness to discuss accession even with countries where internal conflicts continue, it would prove the best tool for their gradual elimination.
Of course, the European Union might not feel ready to undertake this extremely ambitious and difficult plan. But it is worth remembering that, in global politics, ideas and promises often carry as much, and sometimes even more weight than actions.
Europe is already providing large-scale assistance to its eastern neighbors, but more than just technical and financial assistance is needed. Perhaps the EU should work with its partner states to identify long-term goals rather than focusing exclusively on small-scale concerns.

An excellent translation of an open source investigation conducted by a Russian free lance journalist who is now getting grieve in Russia over his investigative journalism into the deaths of three Russian Spetsnaz of the 16th GRU Spetsnaz Brigade killed recently in the Ukraine.
Great example of the power of open source analysis.
Really well worth reading and trying to grasp the pride and honor in their SF profession AND when the word gets around just how the Russian government basically "disowned them"--- not sure that will go down well when the word gets around and it will.
We should remember what the captured Russian Spetsnaz CPT said in his recently released tactical interview--was posted here--"the top is skimming the low is bleeding"......far more Russian Spetsnaz are paying the ultimate price ---for a war they did not start but are honor bound to serve ---than we in the West know about.
NOTE: it appears from the tactical interviews of the two captured Spetsnaz POWs that the individual teams within a Spetsnaz BN are rotating in and out after serving three or four months in the Ukraine and many Spetsnaz teams have been in the Ukraine three or four times already--the two POWs are on their third combat tour. If one does the math 3 times 3-4 months makes about one year--the fighting has been actively ongoing now for one year--begs the question were in fact Russian Spetsnaz teams already inside the Ukraine during the Maidan period???
There has been some Russian Spetsnaz VK (FB) pages released on social media several months ago that seems to suggest that--so was Russia already preparing military to takeover the eastern Ukraine even before the proRussian President fled??????

Investigating the deaths of 16th separate Spetsnaz brigade servicemen
BTW--both POWs may end up being charged with murder as they killed an Ukrainian soldier as they were mine laying just before they got caught up in a fire fight that led to their capture. Remember this is an Ukrainian Anti Terror Operation (ATO)--not a war and Russia has claimed they are not in the Ukraine and that it is an internal civil war.The following is a full translation of Ruslan Leviev’s livejournal post detailing the investigation of three Russian special forces servicemen’s deaths in Eastern Ukraine. The original post, along with donation info, can be found here.
This investigation was prompted by a post found on Russian social network Vkontakte on the death of a certain Anton who died “fighting for the Motherland” (original post | saved copy):
Today we paid the last respects to my best friend, we have supported each other for many years. God sends you such a friend once in a lifetime. He was a real man, a warrior. He died fighting for the motherland, for peaceful skies over our heads. May you live in our memory and rest in peace, my dear Antoshka, thanks for everything you’ve done for Russia and for me [praying emoticons]
While looking for information about this Anton, we found his profile among the friends of Anna (the author of the post above). The name was fake, but the photos were real: profile (saved copy). Last wall photo dated October 25, 2014: Anton is standing in front of an Il-76 of the 224 flight unit (Ministry of Defence’s subsidiary), the photo is geotagged as “Airfield Rostov-on-Don central (original photo | saved copy):
His profile also has various photos from his military service and Karate hobby. According to the photos, Anton had a Karate black belt, often winning various contests. Opening the full-size image of a victory certificate, we can see his full name (link to the full size picture): Anton Savelyev.
The profile also features a photo (link) of Anton in front of a memorial with his military unit’s name on it: military unit 54607 (16-th separate special forces brigade of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU) of the General Staff of Russia’s Ministry of Defense, city of Tambov)
We keep on searching for clues as to circumstances of Anton’s death. We find a profile of his friend who went to the same school he did. In her profile we see a photo taken together with Anton on May 10, signed “Anton Savelyev, 20 years old. Died on military duty. Went to our school” (original post):
Anton Savelyev, 20 years old. Died on military duty. Went to our school.
The “military duty” part catches out attention. We keep looking and find another mourning post, but Anton’s not the only one featured there (original | saved copy):
We remember you, we love you, we grieve for you
The details become more interesting, it’s obvious now that they died together. We start looking for the names of the other two soldiers who died together with Anton. As we look through Anton’s friends’ profiles, we see a message that gives us their call signs (original message | saved copy): Sava, Kardan and Mamai.
Sava, Kardan, Mamai — you will remain in our ranks forever
[Song dedicated “to the defenders of the South-East” (aka Eastern Ukraine)]
This person’s profile also has lots of Spetsnaz references (photos, statuses), which clearly shows us he’s “one of them”. As we start looking for the other two’s call signs, we find Mamai and it’s a bit of luck: he is standing in front of two Donbas rebel armored vehicles (original post | original photo | saved copy).
The “toothed” APC to the right has been filmed many times in Luhansk, including a February 15, 2015 video(saved copy) that shows it driving in front of a Russian humanitarian convoy bearing an Luhansk People’s Republic flag. Here’s the same APC photographed in Luhansk, the letters “ЛНР” (“Luhansk People’s Republic”) clearly visible.
The beige building and metal fence indicate Timur’s photo was shot here as well.
Among those who reposted that message we find another account that hints that Mamai (full name — Timur Mamayusupov) was a Spetsnaz serviceman (original message | saved copy):
Aleksandr Baikal: You aren’t born a Spetsnaz, you become one. And you die as one, while doing your duty. Timur “Mamai” Mamayusupov. He was a great man and comrade-in-arms. May he live forever in our memory.
Sanya Khozhulin: From the skies to earth??? Now from earth to the skies… May you be remembered, Mamai…
This person’s profile also features a post from May 9, 2015, with a video from the 16th Spetsnaz brigade (original message | saved copy):
A year ago. Our parade column going back to base after a solemn march in honor of the 69th Victory anniversary. A passer-by cried: “Boys, sing to us!“ And we did.
Let’s sum up what we’ve got so far: Anton Savelyev, a 16th separate Spetsnaz brigade serviceman, died in early May (first message posted by relatives on May 6) “protecting the Motherland”, “on military duty”. Several profiles belonging to servicemen of the same Spetsnaz brigade feature messages that two other people, one named Timur Mamayusupov (call sign “Mamai”) and another (call sign “Kardan”) died together with Anton.
By the way, the 16th brigade’s parade video gives us another important hint: A Spetsnaz serviceman does not necessarily look like a bodybuilder and all the three people killed are built just like the guys in the video.
Moving on. Another project, also featuring war investigations, gives us info on Timur “Mamai” Mamayusupov. Turns out, they found the info on him before we did and published it long ago. The cargo200.org project has managed to find out several key details on Timur from his relatives’ messages: Timur was a soldier, was in the Spetsnaz and died at a war:
Continued.........My dear Tumur!!! Just so, you ceased to be. Because of this damned war. And not long ago we danced a farewell waltz at the prom and smiled to each other. And we all have plans for life. You played the guitar and sang “A star called the Sun” [Russian rock song popular with guitar players] and now you turned into a shining star yourself((((((((((( And no one can believe you are no more. I have so many bright memories about you, and no we will never recall those moments together. You supported your parents and made them proud. And even I could boast to friends that you became a soldier to protect us. But you are no more, and no matter how much I want it, you’ll never be. You had a whole life ahead of you, but somebody decided it was not to happen. I will miss you a lot. May you be blissful in heaven, and may your soul not be tormented by the tears of your nearest and dearest. May you rest in peace. I will never forget this merry person who taught me so much. You will always live in my memory as the always positive Timur who loved arguing with me so much! May you always be remembered…
