Donetsk Situation Report, 29.10.2018


For the past 24 hours, there have been registered TWENTY-TWO violations of the cease-fire regime by the enemy who has shelled the areas of TWELVE settlements.

In the Gorlovka direction, from the positions of the 72nd motorized and 58th motorized infantry brigades, under the command of the war criminals TATUS and DRAPATOV respectively, the enemy used large-caliber machine guns and small arms to shell the settlements of ZAYTSEVO  and the GAGARIN mine.

In the Donetsk direction, the military of the 92nd and 28th motorized brigades, under the command of the war criminals KOKOREV and MARCHENKO respectively, as well as the 56th motorized infantry brigade, under the command of the punisher IVANOV, used 120 mm mortars, weapons of infantry fighting vehicles, grenade launchers, heavy machine guns and small arms to shell the settlements of KRUTAYA BALKA, SPARTAK, STAROMIKHAYLOVKA, ALEXANDROVKA, ELENOVKA, the settlement of TRUDOVSKIYE in the Petrovsky district of DONETSK, and the area of ​​the airport of DONETSK city.

In the Mariupol direction, the terrorists of the 128th mountain assault and 79th airborne Assault brigades, on the orders of the war criminals SOBKO and KURACH, used 120 and 82 mm mortars, weapons of infantry fighting vwhicles, grenade launchers and small arms to shell the settlements of KOMINTERNOVO, LENINSKOYE and SAKHANKA.

On the wholel, over EIGHTY different ammunition were launched on the territory of the Republic.


The level of military discipline in the Armed Forces of Ukraine personnel remains critically low.

In particular, on October 25, the command of the 58th separate motorized brigade, in coordination with representatives of the military service of law and order, carried out measures to check the soldiers of the 15th and 16th battalions of the brigade for the use of alcohol and drugs. The inspection revealed TWENTY-FIVE servicemen who were in a state of alcohol and drug intoxication. In addition, the inspectors discovered the absence of TWO AWOL soldiers whose whereabouts have not yet been found.

It should be noted that, according to the results of the tests taken by the AFU servicemen in the framework of the annual medical examination, it was found that about 50% of the servicemen of the 58th brigade used certain drugs.


We continue to receive information about non-combat losses of the enemy in the UFO zone.

On October 24 of the current year, in the area of ​​the settlement of KAMENKA, a soldier of the 92nd brigade, senior lieutenant YAKUBOVSKY, born in 1971, got blown up on the enemy's own minefields. The soldier was hospitalized in critical condition. Hiding the daily non-combat losses, the UFO command continues, according to the established tradition, to blame the DPR People's Militia units for the death and injury of soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.


In my turn, I would like to say that the DPR People's Militia units strictly observe the cease-fire regime and apply adequate measures, within the framework of the Minsk agreements, only if the enemy creates a threat to the lives and health of civilians.
