War in Ukraine: Why the Ukrainian Armed Forces Do Not Want to Withdraw from Donbass. Made by famous Ukrainian analyst Yuri Podolyaka.

The British and Americans, in suggesting that the UAF withdraw from Donbass and thus save themselves for future fighting, do not understand one important circumstance. They do not understand that the UAF is able to hold out as long as they are covered by civilians.

And if they do not feel sorry for the inhabitants of Donbass, they may have problems with the other population of Ukraine. Because it is one thing to hide behind those whom you already in your heart consider to be outsiders, and quite another thing to hide behind your own...

On March 24, the Ukrainian parliament passed a law that threatens those who steal, sell or misuse humanitarian aid and charitable donations with up to 12 years in prison.

Yet several cases of alleged profiteering have emerged.

This week, the deputy head of the military administration in Chernivtsi, in western Ukraine, Artur Muntyan, was arrested for allegedly using donated ambulances to provide private, for-profit services rather than for their intended uses.

In April, the acting mayor of a city near Lviv, also in the west, was arrested on charges that he had accepted a bribe worth $4,300 from a charity group for the transfer of a minibus donated by a humanitarian group in Finland.

And police in the southern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia arrested a government employee last month for the illegal sale of firearms and ammunition. It is alleged that the head of a local rescue team was selling weapons intended to be used on the front against Russian soldiers, including an anti-tank grenade launcher, two Kalashnikov rifles and a quantity of rifle cartridges.

Ukraine has what the Global Organized Crime Index in 2021 called “one of the largest arms trafficking markets in Europe.” Experts have called for greater accountability and tighter controls over weapons shipments, in part to ensure that they are not diverted to the black market or for the personal profit of public officials. https://www.thestar.com/news/world/2022/06/04/ukraine-is-getting-rockets-and-tanks-from-the-west-but-front-line-soldiers-scrounge-for-bullets.html

Just recently we have posted a message from Donetsk about yet another shelling from Ukrainian side. Now, be careful, that is a translation from UNIAN website (Ukrainian):

On Saturday, June 4, the temporarily occupied Donetsk was under artillery barrage.
As the Centre for Counteracting Disinformation under the National Security and Defence Council notes, the invaders fired at the centre of Donetsk in order to create a “picture” in the media that would be beneficial to Russian propagandists.
"In the evening, the propaganda media reported that "a series of explosions sounded in Donetsk... The Armed Forces of Ukraine fired 40 shells from Grad, hitting the centre of the city." However, such statements by the Russian media are shattered by reports of eyewitnesses from occupied Donetsk" ...
"In general, the actions of the propagandists are aimed at intimidating the inhabitants of the occupied territories and justifying the "special operation", and once again emphasize the cynicism of the invaders that they are ready to fire on the civilian population for the sake of another news headline," experts say.

So, they really are trying to continue with the same "they shoot themselves" or "air-conditioning exploded" stuff as they were doing for the whole eight years... The most terrible (apart from meaningless loss of life) is that there are people who may still believe it.

Journalist and blogger from Donetsk Igor Gomolsky writes about why the Kyiv regime is so fiercely shelling residential areas of DPR cities.

Many times I was asked: "What are these chaotic shelling of residential areas for, if in a military sense they do absolutely nothing?" Different people with different agenda and aims are asking the same question. The Russians have not yet fully understood who they are dealing with, the Ukrainians are trying to convince themselves that their government is not a bunch of cannibals, and the Europeans are simply shocked.

Firstly, such shelling deprives our troops of the sense of security and safety even when they are not at the front-line. The more the Donetsk fighters push forward, the more rockets and shells fly into the homes of their relatives and friends.
In other words, the heart of a warring Donetsk resident is always out of place. All these years we have been such hostages at a distance. Now our fate is shared by residents of the liberated regions, and sometimes even the border regions of Russia.

Secondly, this is a very understandable signal: “Russia is not capable of protecting you!”
This is a signal not only to the people of Donetsk, but to all the eastern regions of Ukraine. So, they say, it will be with everyone. Don't even dare... Remember the Ukrainian propaganda of the 2014-2016 years? Photos of broken cities with a caption about the “Russian world”? All reasonable people understood what it was about.

Thirdly, it shakes Russian society. The effect is already noticeable both in social networks and among my Russian acquaintances. The Ukrainian propaganda tries in every possible way to spread the statement: “The operation was prepared disgustingly, everything was plundered in the army, they cannot or do not want to defend Donbass.”

Fourthly, this is a very effective anti-advertising of Russian weapons.

Fifthly, it gives motivation to Ukrainian fanatics. Gives a sense of satisfaction. You need to manage to hit a military target, but then he hit the centre of Donetsk and hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian “patriots” rejoiced. Moreover, this is a way of releasing tensions for the Ukrainian soldiers.

Do not forget that Kyiv does not set itself the task of winning the war preserving infrastructure and people. There are practically no purely Ukrainian objectives in all this. But there are tasks lowered from above. They are working on them.

Fake news:
Russian troops have shelled the centre of Donetsk. The news is spread by Ukrainian Telegram channels.

The fact:
The shelling was carried out by the Ukrainian armed forces. The shelling of civilian quarters took place from areas under the control of the Ukrainian army. Local residents and witnesses stated this.

It is also curious and revealing that the areas where the judicial authorities and the Prosecutor General's Office are located were shelled. The strikes were carried out in response to a statement by a representative of the Prosecutor General's Office about foreign mercenaries surrendering to Russia as part of the AFU.

Such acts of aggression against civilians are intended to discredit Russia's actions to establish peace in the territories that have been liberated. At the same time, the Ukrainian media are attempting to shift responsibility for the attacks on civilians onto the Russian Armed Forces. The combination of military and information attacks is intended to undermine confidence in
🇺🇦🇬🇧 "I haven't really seen much like sympathy from the Ukrainian side in the regard of POWs. They are seems to be a lot of like hateful, such attitude from some of the Ukrainians. And a lot of them are really to blame with the nationalist mindset... There's definitely a lot of people who have like that mindset...," British mercenary Aiden Aslin waiting for the trial told on his channel about his "big mistake" to fight on the side of Ukraine, about how it was, nationalists, conditions of his detention and much more.
​That is a news from Ukrainian channel: https://t.me/legitimniy/12370
It seems to be another blunder of our Office of the President. Yesterday Zelensky reported that the AFU shot down a Russian fighter jet.
Then information surfaced that the military plane shot down yesterday was Ukrainian.
The video shows that this is the MiG-29 model, number 38, these were restored in Lviv and their coloring was "gray".

🇺🇦 Ukrainian neo-Nazies.

Ukrainian military consists of actual Nazies, drug addicts, criminals, and sadistic maniacs.

They torture tied-up prisoners by day and shell civilian cities with artillery by night.

These are the people that mainstream media wants us to heroize and support.

Proper translation..
