Russian Army continues to violate the ceasefire agreement reached in Minsk. Reports the press office of the battalion «Azov».
"Clearly the Russian fighters in the south of Ukraine did not get the news about the ceasefire!
An «Azov» stronghold near Mariupol came under a mortar fire today," — reported in the press office.
The battalion is also reporting that bodies of two children were delivered into one of the city mortuaries. There were killed by fragments of a missile as a result of artillery shelling of the village Shirokino.
Free Gaza now! Stop US War crimes! Prosecute US war criminals! HANDS OFF UKRAINE!
Not exactly ordinary citizens, hardened Nazis
Not the ones I saw. Raw recruits.
Here is an interview with the Azov Battalion’s leader.
The most interesting part is at the end.
Yeah, that one is a little dingy, but it is also paying attention to the Russian-language feeds and VK.
The most significant violation of the ceasefire is the occupation of Telmanovo, by a significant contingent of Kiev troops, on the strategically important highway connecting Novoazovsk and Mariupol, which took place yesterday several hours after the beginning of the ceasefire. They have since been forced out after a fight, according to the rebels.
In addition, large reinforcements of Kiev troops keep arriving in Volnovakha, and to what was the Elenovka encirclement, the siege of which was lifted on Friday, thus creating a significant salient south of the city of Donetsk.
Aidar got caught moving into rebel-controlled areas 12 hours after the ceasefire, also a violation.
In addition, the well-reported UK bombardment in Donetsk right after the ceasefire started was directly targeted at the DNR’s media chief, who was severely injured. It isn’t the first time Kiev troops have directly targeted her, either.
Kiev troops also apparently prevented the ICRC aid convoy from going to Lugansk today, by shelling the road in front of them.
The fighting around Mariupol was apparently started by Azov (Right Sector). Big shock, that (not). The rebels apparently flattened the UK’s Eastern Checkpoint, and a nearby heavy artillery position in response. Not really clear if anything else is going on there, right now.
On the rebel side, Bezler isn’t allowing any advances in his area of control around Gorlivka, and has admitted to firing on at least one UK position.
It’s almost dawn there, now. We should know pretty shortly if the cease-fire is going to hold, or not.

Am a short distance from Donetsk airport. Just heard volley of rockets, most likely Grad. No ceasefire here obviously.
