On August 5, the Ukrainian military failed to advance on the frontlines but continued bloody attacks on civilians in the regions that Kiev lost. As a result of the shelling by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, two women were killed, ten more civilians were wounded in the Donetsk city agglomeration over the past day. Another woman was killed as a result of the Ukrainian shelling in the Kherson region.
Two elderly women were killed by Ukrainian Nazis in the Kuibyshev district of Donetsk and the Nikitovsky district of Gorlovka. During the day, residential buildings in the city of Donetsk, Gorlovka, Yasinovataya, Novopetrovka were damaged by Ukrainian fire.
According to the acting head of the Donetsk People’s Republic Denis Pushilin, 48 attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine were recorded in the DPR during the day, a total of 175 artillery rounds were fired. According to the local reports, the Ukrainian military is actively using cluster munitions for attacks on civilians
Later on the evening of August 5, the AFU resumed shelling on the center of the city of Donetsk. The local residents reported numerous explosions and the active work of Russian air defence forces.
The DPR representative office in the JCCC confirmed that the city was shelled with cluster munitions.
So far “four shells of 155 mm caliber (cassette) were fired,” the report says.
The shelling continues.
Today, the Armed Forces of Ukraine also killed an 83-year-old woman with mortar fire in the village of Gornostayevka located on the eastern bank of the Dnieper River. Her grandson miraculously survived.
Senseless from the military point of view, Kiev’s terrorist attacks are aimed at threatening pro-Russian civilians. People are dying from Ukrainian shells on a daily basis and the only way to protect them is to push the Ukrainian military out from the borders of the pro-Russian regions.
seems like the lpr /dpr were doing a lot better with the ukrainian army before russia got involved
absolute a truth
russia has badly let down lpr/dpr. 12,000 to 14,000 were killed in donbass by ukr 2014 to feb 2022. 4,500+ more civilians have been killed since feb 2022. do the maths. heads should roll in the rus military.
actually, the ukrainians hold the record for killing and disemboweling russian citizens.
putin’s strategic patience enabled russia to prepare for ww3 that nato will start next year on a futile attempt to resurrect its dying economy…
nobody can prepare for ww3, detent is about avoiding it. the smo was about (1) protect donbass & (2) denazify ukr (= regime change). but rus stalled, surrendered key towns, dug trenches & counted dead ukrs. this gave ukranato time to rearm & incentive to keep attacking donb/crim.
seems like the lpr/dlr were doing a lot better before direct involvement by over 100 nations consisting of thousands of men who have given their lives for a mere shekel.
that’s when zelenska’s gang of murderers struck again.
he will soon flee to germany or the usa like thousands of his compatriots and accomplices, this shit guy
the ukie officers and the ukie ‘other ranks’ all deserve a special place in hell for the wanton murder of civilians.
all very well to say, but when given the chance to put azov scum on trial (after the fall of mariupol) rus released them to a holiday camp in treacherous turkiye. two months ago erdogan agreed with z & let azov return to kiev to start killing donbass civilians again. whose fault? putin’s!!
agree, bunker grandpa is not believing his own ridiculous nazi propaganda and thus not following true.
the closer the liberation of andrejevka is, the more intensively the nazis will target civilians, and their dedication goes to the extent that they will rather use the last shell to target civilians than to kill a russian soldier. that’s why the ukrainian nazis are holding on to andreevka so tightly and that’s why the russians are attacking those nazis so fiercely!
ffs putin/shoigu/gerasimov (et al) get your acts together & fulfill the aims of the smo. protect donbass & crimea. stop digging trenches & hiding. push deep into ukr, topple nazi z regime. trample ukranato fascists & establish rus controlled steppe. this is war; win it!!
way to go loco joe, you piece of shit, russia should indict loco joe and all the nato trash and officers in the kiev army who are shelling donetsk.
zelensky is just begging for a stay at a russian gulag. there are no pianos there for comedians who use their “extensions” to “tickle the ivories.”
zionist-fascist dictator zelenskyy did bidings of n.a.t.o. and us which doesn’t a lot the need for diplomacy which may have avoided all but bringing the nazi regiments from poland into ukraine we’re pulling may eventually end up regaining the territory they lost before world war ii. the nazis are nothing but murderers, but thank you for keeping us up to date sorry for the losses of civilians and the spitefulness of belligerence.
terrorist tactics similar to those used to frighten israeli people, throughout their history, into abandoning their homes and leaving: isn’t going to work.
