It seems the Ukrainian army is ready to assault the two rebel cities in the East, Donetsk and Lugansk. The population is fleeing, taking refuge while the rebels are preparing to make their last stand. Or not?
A Russian humanitarian convoy has been sent to these cities, to aid civilians they say. Russia amassed a huge intervention force at the Ukrainian borders intimidating their neighboring country but didn't act yet. Maybe they were happy with the rebels resistance in their cities, however a successful assault of the Ukrainian troops would turn the tables. Will then Moscow feel the need to attack?
They can't afford to lose Ukraine from their claws that's for sure.
In other news some 3500 Ukrainian soldiers went missing out of the blue in the east. The official reports are quite confusing, could they have been taken prisoners? Or they simply deserted to the rebels? Support for the war is very low especially in the Ukrainian regions which were former territories of Romania and Poland, more and more these minorities refuse to fight for a government that cared little of them so far.
