Shellings are light to moderate tonight evidently the mercenaries and Russian troops are simply to busy killing each other to think about shelling the Ukrainians.

NOTE: Check the second video --the tactical interview with the captured Spetsnaz CPT that was released--posted here as well.
When asked what his team's mission set was--- one of the items listed was surveillance of what he called “resistance fighters”—means to me the Russia GRU is maintaining a far tighter control over them than the West seems to think—loose cannons are not definitely not being allowed.
If this is true then Russia has a far deeper and more solid control over the mercenaries than they “claim” they have when the Russian FM Lavrov states ”we will see if they listen to us when Kerry was in Sochi”—it seems that if they do not listen then “ambush” is the immediate answer via the Spetsnaz.
During some of the really heavy fighting there were social media comments coming out of eastern Ukraine about so called “blocking forces”—Russian Army troops that (types never were defined) were positioned behind the attacking mercenaries --—if they ran-- then these “blocking forces” much as did the NKVD troops in WW2 –shot the fleeing troops.
There were a number of such comments but no real evidence of this but where there is smoke the truth is not far away.
The timeframe of the reports was when Debaltseve was under heavy attack when Putin was in Budapest where he crowed during a press conference that "miners and tuck drivers" had beaten the UA and had taken Debaltseve yet it did not fall for another three days.

So an important European wide production plant is effectively shut down by Russian artillery and MRLS troops and still the West does not realize this war is aimed as well at them?????
Still after days of intense shellings and Russian ground probes using among others Russian spetsnaz NOT a single comment from hollande, Merkel and Obama—just how strange is that???
Days of intense Russian shelling of Avdiivka Ukraine finally shut down one of the largest coke plants in Europe & the city's main employer

More on his execution which it was. Have noticed that it is definitely "internal" as the Russian propaganda has made not a single attempt to "blame the Ukrainians".
If I am a mercenary leader in the Russian occupied zone—think an armored car would be the more preferred means of travel-not an modern SUV.
BUT since there were only four original mercenary leaders in the LNR it seems the fourth one has "won" the power struggle as the other three were all killed by "ambushes".

This "official comment" does beg the question--so is the Russian army in the Ukraine "due to gays and the IS"??? Not geo political reasons??

About Mozgovoy. It is interesting to see that Putin's guards show fingers to Ukraine, but Russian nationalist and communists show fingers to Russia. Last group describes the situation as giving up idea of Russkii Mir and achieving compromise with the west to get rid of sanctions.
kaur--you will like this report that just came in via social media.
Seems that while Russian leaders can sanction the execution of a Russian mercenary their lower personnel MUST be running out of money and or just flat corrupt.
There is nothing worse than a loose cannon or two with ammunition in the hands of an extortionist.
Does it appear to anyone else the "so called New Russia" dream is evolving into simply another perfect example of typical Russian disorganization and blatant corruption?????? Seems that is about all they have perfected since the Wall came down.

I know,I always believed the #Russian commanders that 10-25% of their troops are Ukrainians.
But honestly I start doubting that. I see none.

Russian forces fired 120 mm mortars vs. #chermalyk and #Shyrokyne this morning. No injuries reported so far.

This Ukrainian POW was held for over seven months--not released under the Minsk 2 exchange all for all agreements--THERE is another Russian mafia extortion game going on--they are attempting to sell each of the remaining 400 Ukrainians POWs AND not exchange them as Russia recently stated--they want to fulfill and implement all of Minsk 2.

After the massive Amnesty International news of torture on both sides and their being challenged by the Ukrainian side to produce their evidence--which by the way they did not respond to--noticed they did not rush to interview this particular POW--ever wonder why???

Ukrainian guerrilla unit "Shadows" has reported the following and there is some indication it is verified as true.
If verified then it is further prove the Ukrainian guerrilla war is starting to gain traction as this unit has actually even ambushed and killed two Russian Generals on the GRU side. Which by the way the Russians are always quick to deny if such a report surfaces—that time it was utter silence.
The attack was professionally and quickly carried out as if a true SOF team had done it and Shadows is made up to a degree of former Ukrainian SOF/Alpha types.
Commander of the Ukrainian 'Shadows' guerrilla unit takes responsibility for the assassination of the 'Ghost' rebel unit commander Mozgovoy.
More on Russian Spetsnaz fighting and dying in the Ukraine.
BTW—this Russian soldier was actually identified as being a killed Spetsnaz soldier—died in fightin in the Ukraine—grave was found by Russian investigative reporters.
