Russian Security Council warns of new provocations in Donbass

Deputy Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Mikhail Popov said that with the current concentration of Ukrainian troops on the border of Donbass, an accidental shot would be enough to flare up an armed conflict with renewed vigor, writes Rossiyskaya .

He stressed that Ukraine's "oversaturation" with "defensive" types of weapons could give some leaders of the military department of this country and representatives of nationalist groups on the border with the Luhansk and Donetsk republics the illusion of invincibility, push them to provoke an open military clash, and also demonstrates the dismissive attitude of these “sponsor” states to the lives of ordinary Ukrainians on both sides of the conflict.

Earlier, the head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, Sergei Naryshkin, said that Ukraine was preparing with might and main for an attack on the Donbass. So, Naryshkin noted, the combat-ready units of the Ukrainian army are already concentrated at the line of contact. The goal, according to the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service, is not only the destruction of the people's republics, but also drawing Russia into the intra-Ukrainian conflict.

Deputy Head of the People's Militia Department of the DPR DPR Eduard Basurin also said that Kiev had transferred the S-300 division to the Donbass and was pulling multiple launch rocket systems to the border to prepare for the offensive.
