Interesting that Russsia has not pushed back on the BILD report of their total Russian governmental agency control of their occupied zone

No official denial of @BILD's #RussiaRulesDonbass report.
Just desperate attempts by its media tools.

A solid indirect statement on their part that the leaked documents are accurate.

Russian shelling's and ground attacks are now ongoing for over 72 plus hours non stop....Russian slow stepped ground offensive is getting stronger.

UAF is only returning fire when they have clear shots.....Russians are firing using the local civilians as human shields to prevent the UAF from returning fire on them.


11:35 #Stepne @Darren_Aro Since 9am it is not calm in vicinity, but the wind distorts the direction of booms

12:06 #Makiivka @PVB40 [fb] #Makiivka listens to heavy salvos

12:07 #Horlivka [pro-RU source] @phoenix_dnr Just now there are not bad landings at #Zaytseve

Horse-trading is under way. Russian Investigative Comm Spox V Markin says #Savchenko swap possible if it's for 'good & honest' Russians.

"Good and honest" might be if Russia finally fulfills a key portion of the Minsk 2 agreement...immediate return of all Ukrainian POWs and she was captured inside Ukraine and then taken to Russia which Russia has repeatedly stated did not happen.....
