January 22 – The Intelligence Agency of the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) reports:
“In Artemovsk, militants of the ‘Donbass’ Battalion [Ukrainian fascists headed by Semen Semenchenko] appeared under the flags of the DNR for provocation. According to information received from the residents of occupied Artemovsk (56 km north of Donetsk), in the evening near the railway station, columns of up to four trucks were seen with flags of the Donetsk People’s Republic and personnel wearing uniforms with militia insignia.
“According to the press service of the DNR Defense Ministry, DNR militia units are not and cannot be around Artemovsk. According to DNR Intelligence, these are disguised militants from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine’s ‘Donbass’ Battalion, stationed in the village. We believe that they are preparing a provocation against the civilian population in the Artemovsk area, in order to blame the militias.”
P.S. This would be a quite predictable move after the departure of the IMF mission to Ukraine and the Commander of the U.S. Army in Europe, a bloody provocation like the one near Volnovakha, in order to speed up the introduction of martial law in Ukraine (a package of documents on this subject is already prepared in the Verkhovna Rada). So do not be surprised if the junta soon tries to inflict another bloody massacre and blame it on Russia and the People’s Republics.
