The Ukrainian army intends to go on the offensive in the Donbass in the near future. The directions of the three main blows are determined. The militants of the nationalist battalions are assigned the role of barrage detachments in order to drive Ukrainian soldiers into battle and clean up settlements.

This was stated by the official representative of the People's Militia of the DPR, Eduard Basurin, referring to the plan of the Ukrainian offensive operation obtained by intelligence. With the onset of "D-Day" after a massive fire strike by cannon and rocket artillery, with air support, it is planned to destroy objects of military and civilian significance to a depth of 10-15 kilometers.

The main blow will be applied to Kramatorsk and Debaltseve. Artillery, airborne and armored brigades of Ukraine are participating in the offensive. They are tasked to reach the Alchevsk-Yenakievo line within three days, and then to the Russian border.

"In the Azov direction, the forces of the 53rd mechanized and 36th marine brigades, from the Shirokino-Starognatovka line, as well as the amphibious assault of the 501st separate marine battalion from the Novoazovsk region, with the support of the 55th artillery brigade, are planned to advance in the direction of Komsomolskoye and within two days reach the Ilovaisk-Ulyanovskoye line. In the future, develop an offensive along the border of the Russian Federation in the direction of Krasny Luch," Basurgin said.

Limited offensive operations will be carried out in the Lugansk direction. It is also planned to involve 25 sabotage groups and nationalist detachments in the operation.
