04/11/14 Report corr. Andrew Krasnoshchekova.

We looked out of the trench on the confrontation of good and LC 31 th post APU. Photostory below the video later.
In my head the words of a song Letov: "There are no atheists in the trenches under fire," and we, meanwhile, left the small village of Frunze (LC). Sometimes in such cases, write "broke." Maybe so, given that we had 4 times heading to the car, but after a distant volley on the next cry of men, at the same time with them jumped into a nearby trench. No, no one here, "the press is not fired," opened fire on two sides almost continuously, for several days.
Describes militia commander with the callsign Zhigan:
- We offer them to surrender many times already. Recently, our local taxi driver that's sent with a note, do not want in any. Answered their fire regularly, they start in the morning, we later. They finish by late evening, and at night we can add (chuckles on the last word).
On his chest Gigue binoculars, all his companions traditional "Kalash", some grenade launchers. On each already winter clothing, camouflage Soviet and Russian sample, preferably not modern colors. We could see no body armor, no helmets.
On the Ukrainian soldiers tell everyone here without explicit hatred, but then with a smile notice about the next whistle mines over his head, aimed at supporters of a unified Ukraine:
- Calm down, it's ours.
I do not know that for separatists in all the surrounding meadows, but those who have seen now in Frunze - to local evidence. Misha lad armed with a gun, leading us on a rural street shows at school, where he studied at the neighbor's house, said that "here knows every brick." Passing by on three bikes Soviet peasants forty, in worn jackets, sweat pants.
- This is our electricians, so once again here the line mend - almost tenderly says fighter.
Shows and pierced by shrapnel, but brewed gas pipe. If you believe Misha, no dead or wounded opponents of Kiev in the village Frunze was not. Speaking of which, he crossed himself.
If we forget that the blood of this land is heavily watered in the last hundred years for the third time, and pay attention only to the name of the villages, everything here is very optimistic: Funny, Funny Mountain, The Good, the Bold. We go on one of these "funny" places, and the road passes shell-shocked dog: continually shakes his head.
In the near Lugansk here, compared to Donetsk, where there were more in the morning, unusually lively. Cars, passers-by so much more. Relatively calm in the capital of the LC 2 months, the last time the shells went in residential construction in early September. We see already ingrained by today's standards the holes in the houses here and there they are cemented, broken windows are sealed and hammered plywood. At all entrances and exits from Lugansk remains armed throughput mode.
After the sun went back to Donetsk.

11.04.14. 23:14. Summary for the last day of volunteer Ian.

"During the past days clashes continued in the area of the new terminal, periodically open enemy mortar fire from the sand and howitzer artillery from the Avdeyevka. About five in the morning (HP) on nitric drone was seen. During the evening in the October shelling destroyed eight private homes , data on victims.
Morning resumed howitzer attacks by Avdeyevka; in the vicinity of the airport was fighting high intensity Kiev Nazis attempted attacks on our positions on the part of sand, with the support of a tank platoon and armored vehicles, as well as mortar batteries enemy approached the outskirts of the airport. Returning fire, the enemy was scattered, destroyed several combat units. In the first half of the day by Chugueva intensified enemy aircraft in the sky Novorossia simultaneously be at least level stormtroopers.
On the morning of the Lazouski fields fierce clashes with the application of heavy weapons and artillery. In Seversk around noon was heard cannonade. In the area Karachun go artstrelby. From the side Zirka 1 goes toward Novoazovsk shelling; in Gnutovo, Pavlopole and Mariupol hear breaks. On Ilichevsky was a fight. Continue artdueli near Gorlovki. Not easy in the Red Lima Kramatorsk: fearing the enemy attacks our DRG subject to a number of unforgivable mistakes on the march, vklekushih addition to combat losses and combat, this affects the low professional qualification punitive; today in the area of Mount Zakotyanskoy capsized "shishiga" with the Nazis, and a half separating punitive injured, many of them will join the heavenly division is not known. In a number of cities in the frontline begins to increase panic among Nazi collaborators, otstutstvie support of the local population in Nazi executioners leads to general drunkenness personnel rear units in border areas, in the light of what even the local Nazi collaborators do not feel the protection of their Nazi benefactors and start to run.
During the day in Donetsk, relatively quiet, Kiev punishers are basically howitzer artillery shelling from the airport and the surrounding area of the resort, aside Vzletka smoke. During the days of fighting, destruction of at least three enemy firing points, the Nazis have losses in equipment and manpower (in unspecified data about two platoons). Activity enemy aircraft during the day average.
Furnishings tension. "


11.04.14. 21:38. Message from Donetsk militias.

"Throughout the day ukry were firing from cannon artillery (" Grad "was not) in the main district and adjacent airport: mine waste heap Panfilov, the 15th station," Metro ". To shell as always with the western margin of the sand and west side Avdeyevka, sometimes by itself Avdeyevka.
We meet not often, but precise strokes. So west Avdeyevka destroyed two firing positions Nazis and adjacent to one of them, click the temporary dislocation of personnel and equipment. An hour ago, there was a lull. At 21:40 ukry intensified, began shelling the area of sand around the airport. "


11.04.14. Comment by military analyst Boris Rozhina ("colonelcassad").

"At the same Poroshenko quite openly pressured, accusing him of past military failures (in the area of number of checkpoints - like a small thing, but annoying) and that he bends to Putin, even with a behind the back support of the US and the EU.
Now punishers of units-sponsored Kolomoiskiy already openly threatened that further concessions will not be tolerated and that the situation can only be resolved by war. And since Poroshenko now forced to bargain with Yatsenyuk about the future of the coalition, he is forced to take a more assertive position that has resulted in the decision to repeal the law on the status of Donbass (which is still not met, but is in fact a part of the Minsk Agreement).
Declared NSDC meeting on Ukraine looks as if the old scheme stopped working and the junta will decide what to do next. The choice is hers, not very rich - or the resumption of hostilities in the attempts to use the accumulated forces to change the situation in their favor (with the risk of a direct clash with the "PX"), or else trying to buy time in the hope that the pressure of the United States still force Russia to some concessions. Obviously, the conditions announced by the ceasefire and the withdrawal of troops transfer boundary junta currently not realizable. And absolutely not realizable wishes to reverse the issue of November 2 election.

In this regard, nastarayuschie aggressive statements of the parties, amid harsh rhetoric in US-Russian relations, indicate the growing systemic crisis of the whole concept of the Minsk Agreement. A recent reshuffle in the Ukrainian direction when Surkov was replaced associated person Boris Rapoport as well in my opinion is not accidental.

The fact that, in connection with the activation of talk about Big Novorossia and activity of Kharkiv guerrilla activity recall February Rapoport. Meanwhile, he is still up to the overthrow of the regime of Yanukovych to establish contacts with Dobkin and Kernes in Kharkiv for the organization "Ukrainian Front" in Kharkov Euromaidan against and with him still tied then the current Speaker of the Parliament of New Russia Oleg Tsarev. And he also said that considering Kharkiv as Russia's outpost in eastern Ukraine.
This plan now for the post of curator of the Ukrainian direction atonement for man who has spearheaded the organization of work on the Big New Russia. Technical Is this replacement in the light of the growing understanding that the course of the Minsk Agreement is not justified or in the Kremlin again began glances at the idea of ​​Greater New Russia is not yet clear. I think there's a lot to be understood by the activity of the Kharkov resistance and media background around Kharkov.
In general, we see the past in the Ukraine and Novorossia elections have not eliminated the key contradictions and both sides were faced with the same set of problems, which are not allowed to Minsk Agreement and could not resolve.
Frozen card front line, which every day fighting blazes, reflects the clinch, which included the belligerents and of who can not get out. "



11.04.14. Comment by military observer.

"What is the meaning of tactical battles for these three" accidents "checkpoint.
Loss of checkpoint number 31 opens the way for blocking positions in Ukrainian Happiness and opens the way to the militia and Lisicansk Severodonetsk. The checkpoint number 31 is located in the village. Frunze, № 29 near the village. Donetsk, 30th Outfits. These three checkpoint hung over the right wing factions Stakhanov VSN. Capturing the checkpoint number 31, and even better, and number 29, 30 VSN can reliably provide flank of the advancing group Slavyanoserbsk through the rear of Happiness. The second value. After taking these roadblocks to kick Lisicansk also becomes possible. Before him will be 10-15 km. But this, in my opinion, most likely will not. The first blow is much more prepared and tempting. Because if a special operation succeeds, it will bring down the entire fully Lugansk front (similar to Amvrosievsky boiler). "


11.04.14. Message from small Igor Ivanovich.

"The only option - until late (until NATO is not ready to send" partner Pete "to help their troops) crush ruins completely militarily, with the creation of" Greater New Russia. "This will require considerable hardship and probably mobilization. And also the speedy removal of power set of "old friends from St. Petersburg-liberals." But it is better to suffer deprivation and achieve decisive victory than to get all the same thing and ended up "with nothing" and the prospect of repeating path Milosevic-Hussein-Gaddafi.
Liberation and reunification. Restoration of what was taken from us 23 years ago under the cover thoroughly false cries of "freedom" and "democracy."
