DPR Ukrainian troops opened fire on Yasinovataya and Vasilyevka, including “Grad”

DONETSK, May 14 – RIA Novosti. On June 15, Ukrainian troops fired 10 Grad rockets at Yasinovataya in the Donetsk People’s Republic and five 122 mm artillery shells at Vasilyevka, informs Representation of the DPR at the Ceasefire Regime Joint Control and Coordination Center (JCCC).

“Fire was recorded from the armed formations of Ukraine in the direction: 15.06 – settlement Avdiivka – settlement Yasinovataya: 10 rockets were fired from BM-21 “Grad”; 15.06 – settlement Avdiivka – settlement Vasilyevka: five shells of 122 mm caliber were fired”, – representative on the Telegram channel says the message of his office.

Yasinovataya is located about 25 kilometers north of Donetsk and is home to the largest train station in the former USSR. It has been in contact with the combat positions of Ukrainian troops for about eight years, in the direction of Avdiivka, west of the city, which has been controlled by the DPR since 2014.

Russia launched a military operation against Ukraine on February 24. President Vladimir Putin described his goal as “protecting people who have been subjected to eight years of bullying and genocide by the Kyiv regime.” According to him, for this it is planned “demilitarization and gentrification of Ukraine” in order to bring to justice all war criminals responsible for “bloody crimes against civilians” in Donbass.

According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the Armed Forces attack only the military infrastructure and Ukrainian troops, and as of March 25 they have completed the main tasks of the first stage – they have significantly reduced the combat potential of Ukraine. The main goal in the Russian military department was called the liberation of Donbass.
