The head of the DPR Alexander Zakharchenko died as a result of sabotage three years ago

40

Today, August 31, marks exactly three years since the death of Alexander Zakharchenko. The head of the Donetsk People's Republic was the victim of a sabotage operation, which was carried out in the central part of Donetsk.

The sabotage was carried out when Alexander Zakharchenko, accompanied by several people, entered a local cafe with the notable name "Separ". The explosion took place at about 17:30. Immediately after the explosion, a fire broke out, which was extinguished by several DNR fire brigades.

Later, information appeared on Ukrainian information portals that an explosive device was allegedly in a car parked near the cafe. However, the footage, which was played on all main channels in August 2018, indicated that the explosive device, with the greatest degree of probability, could have been installed inside the catering premises.

The DPR leadership announced that the incident was a terrorist act organized by the Ukrainian special services. In turn, the SBU claims that they allegedly have nothing to do with the explosion in a cafe in Donetsk. The statements of the SBU press service contained words that there was an alleged "internal political struggle" in the DPR, which resulted in the elimination of the head.

About two weeks after the explosion, representatives of the law enforcement agencies of the Donetsk People's Republic circulated a message stating that "there is evidence of involvement in the terrorist attack not only of SBU employees, but also of representatives of Western special services, who transferred technologies that had not previously been used to Ukrainian saboteurs."

Alexander Zakharchenko, from the first days of Kiev's aggression in Donbass, took part in the resistance to the Maidan regime. He took part in all the main battles against the Kiev security forces. Since May 2014, he was the military commandant of Donetsk, then took the post of deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the republic. In August 2014, he replaced Alexander Borodai as head of the Council of Ministers of the DPR. In November of the same year, he was elected to the post of head of the republic.

The direct executors and customers of Zakharchenko's murder have not yet been punished.

      It is a pity that all the charismatic leaders of Donbass were killed, there were worthy men after whom the fighters went into battle.
      Givvi, Motor, Zakharchenko and others. Kingdom of heaven to them and eternal memory.

                The crimes of the Bandera-Nazi Kiev regime are countless !!!
                Only the wretched-minded Russophobes-Ukrainian Nazis, like the "Hero of Ukraine" Nadezhda Savchenko, do not understand this in any way - or they simply do not want to understand this, since they themselves have blood on their hands up to their shoulders in relation to innocent people!

                Muraev answered Savchenko HARD: Your patriotic chants have continued the conflict in Donbass for 7 years!


                Correctly for this video was written by one of the commentators about Muraev and the poorly educated Nazi-Russophobic Savchenko:

        well, more than half were killed as a result of betrayal or showdowns due to finances, and in the LPR, so probably all the leaders were killed by their own people, under the populism of Russia, or by direct order, which was carried out by Plotnitsky

          Well, for example, Mozgovoy was removed exactly by specialists from Russia, Mozgovoy said a lot about Russia's betrayal of Donbass, he asked a lot of inconvenient questions to the GDP, And for inconvenient questions the tsar sends either to the grave or to prison!

        You're right, missing as a class. Such, not quite a war ... We will not soon find out how and who ... But I feel sorry for Zakharchenko. I liked him.

        What we helped them create is there ...


        By analogy, if we wanted to overcome Basmachism in Central Asia, then we sent our best cadres there to train and work with local comrades who did not have such experience.
        And as a result of this work, local personnel acquired experience and skills of independent actions, and could already work effectively themselves, especially considering that they know the local specifics better than any "newcomers".

      I remember 3 different news that members of the group of these "saboteurs" were captured.
      I did not follow, but, It all ended, apparently, with nothing.

      And I met several videos from the LPR, volunteer Cossacks, that they are being killed, including by their corrupt bosses. Like, there is evidence, full flash drives of compromising evidence, will merge, expose, etc. IMHO, it all ended imperceptibly

      Zakharchenko was a charismatic person, but they don't like such people. And in general, the rise of the Russian spirit at 14 scared some people, so Novorossia was merged and forgotten. Even the Russian spring was tolerantly called Crimean. And by the way, how many generals commanding the second Chechen remained in the ranks of the Ministry of Defense / Ministry of Internal Affairs ? does not like VVP people who act decisively and boldly. But personal loyalty is at his head. Therefore, all these stools, LADIES, and the company are not drowned. Therefore, the liquidation of Bati is another question

                  The country's strength lies not only in the ability to pile on all its neighbors, here the Russian Federation really has only two competitors.

But if the president did not work, then the head of the SBU and his deputies would also be quite useful. It didn't work out well, it wasn't right ...

      I agree with the second part.
      but in the first fundamental mistake, Crimea and Ukraine are historically Russia, even I would say its thousand-year roots !!! The Americans, on the other hand, managed not only to squeeze out Ukraine, but also to brainwash the Russians, so that they would kill Russians under the leadership of nats not indigenous to Russia and Ukraine and Crimea for the sake of the interests of the United States. Therefore, your position is not clear to me.
      And for economic prosperity in the conditions of American expansion and aggression, Russia needs a geographic and demographic minimum basis, a foundation. without it, loss and well-being will be lost. we will be the second Mexico for the USA
