Outside the town council, Ukrainian National Guard officer Ilya Kiva was overseeing the evacuation. “We are ready to beg them on our knees to get out of here and let us do our job, which is to destroy the enemy.” “The separatists may have attacked in some places, but our town is mainly being destroyed by the National Guard.”

OK

What is Ukrainian National Guard ?

It is formed from neo-Nazi and ultras ... Used as punitive squad , shock troops

They have a status of elite corps like Waffen SS

Most funny thing - there are a lot of armed conflicts between National Guard and Ukrainian Army

( National Guard is a base of regime and not a part of Army)

Even POW from Ukrainian Army and National Guard fiercely attack each other

I'm afraide Mr Kiva has a little chance to survive ...

Debaltsevo is surrounded now and Russian militias hate Neo-Nazi from National Guard of Ukraine

@Olegek For some of us, the Russians are worse than the neo-Nazis. At least the Nazis weren't as good as Putin at lying.

Sorry - it's not history of Inca - a lot material is available in Internet about Ukraine 2014

First - putsch in Kiev (Supported by USA&EU ) than mass arests of political opponents. Then army was send to supress South-East - a sort of Latin America's JUNTA was established.

Then Ukrainian Army starts to shelling cities of south -east...

Now these war crilimals loosing the battle.

Yes It's well known fact in Russia - after WW II - most of Nazi criminals run West not East.

Nazi agents in Russia were invited to service by US government... Nazism - is a integral part of Western culture (unlike Russia) so - no surprise

SuperLib Russian citizens are killing Ukrainian citizens. It's not a good situation in east Ukraine

Most of militias staff are Russian from south-east . There are mercenaries and NATO advisers on other side by the way
