The Ukrainian Armed Forces Were Preparing to Launch an Offensive in Donbas and Crimea on the 8th of March

Denis Pushilin – the head of the Donetsk People’s Republic, said that the Ukrainian Armed Forces were preparing an offensive in Donbas and Crimea on the 8th of March according to the “intelligence of the DPR and the testimony of Ukrainian captives” stating that “the facts indicate that a simultaneous invasion of both the territory of the Donbass Republics and the Russian Federation – Crimea – was planned.”

Today journalists were presented with evidence of the aggressive plans of the Ukrainian regime and those behind it. During the liberation operation, the DPR People’s Militia discovered a laptop with a NATO registry license number at the Right Sector (an organization banned in the Russian Federation and the DPR) headquarters near the village of Berdyanske. This indicates that the device is particularly secretive. Accordingly, fighters of the National Security Forces have a special level of security clearance from the North Atlantic Alliance. This laptop contains a detailed map of the terrain with the locations of our units and other military facilities that have been detected from drones, including American drones. It also contains programs on how to assemble, operate and remotely control strike drones. NATO, including its Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, has repeatedly claimed that there are no North Atlantic Alliance forces on Ukrainian territory. And now direct evidence has been found that NATO was on the side of the Ukrainian regime. The notebook contains not only maps of Donbas, but also of Crimea, which suggests that the Ukrainian armed formations did not intend to limit themselves to a forcible takeover of the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics. Another proof of these intentions is the actual map of Crimea. It shows in red the alleged locations of units of the armed forces of the Russian Federation. The points of entry and advancement of the AFU are marked in blue. The invasion was planned from land and sea. According to our intelligence and the testimony of Ukrainian prisoners, the offensive operation was to begin on 8 March this year. The facts indicate that a simultaneous invasion of both the territory of the Donbas Republics and the Russian Federation – Crimea – was planned. In addition to this evidence, numerous other items characterizing the intentions and support of the Kiev regime were found. For example, Ukrainian units collected flags of the countries whose representatives were visiting them. There are flags of Germany and Spain. After the liberation of populated areas by our People’s Militia, flags continue to be found at other abandoned enemy positions. Numerous flags of nationalist battalions have also been found, such as the “Bears” unit, which was used as a barrier troops. This nationalist unit is notable for its particular brutality. Particular attention was paid to educating Ukrainian fighters in the spirit of nationalist ideology, where, above all, the ideas of genocide of everything Russian, everything Orthodox, were inculcated. What is the conclusion to be drawn from this? NATO has long been in charge of Ukraine’s armed formations. NATO instructors have been training and coordinating them. Under their direction, an offensive operation in Donbas and Crimea was planned by the Ukrainian armed formations on 8 March. All of this proves the timeliness of the launch by the Russian Federation of a special operation to assist the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics. This made it impossible to carry out the enemy’s plans to destroy hundreds and hundreds of thousands of civilian lives both in our Donbas and in Russia’s Crimea.
