Ukrainian snipers have opened the “hunting season”
Ukrainian snipers are increasingly targeting local civilians in Donbass, on both sides of the front line.
The official representative of the operational command of the DPR, Daniil Bezsonov, announced this during a briefing, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the defense department, snipers arrived at the position of the 53rd mechanized brigade east of the settlement of Novgorodskoye.
Bezsonov called on civilians living on the eastern outskirts of Gorlovka to be more attentive and careful.
“Recent events indicate that Ukrainian snipers have received instructions to shoot at all detected targets, and it does not matter whether they are military personnel or civilians.
Thus, on April 24, a sniper from the 12th mechanized brigade wounded a resident of the village of Aleksandrovka. Yesterday, a Ukrainian sniper from the 35th Marine Brigade wounded a civilian Serugan in the village of Chermalyk, which is under the control of the Kyiv authorities,” said a representative of the defense department.
At the same time, he emphasized that civilians on both sides of the contact line are suffering from the criminal actions of Ukrainian militants.
As a reminder, the DPR operational command previously reported that a Ukrainian sniper opened fire on a VGTRK film crew preparing a report on the living conditions of civilians and the situation in the area of Spartak, a frontline suburb of Donetsk.
It also later became known that the sniper pair who carried out the shelling of Aleksandrovka on April 15, which resulted in the wounding of a civilian resident of the village, were blown up by a tripwire installed by Azov fighters.
