Blog chervonec-001 published on Monday a summary of the voter “Mag”, which tells about a sharp exacerbation of the situation in the DPR from 26 to June 2.
“Exacerbation awaited 22 May. The information was from many sources, from both sides, both our and Ukrainian. But it all started four days later, May 26 on Thursday at 12: Moscow time, 00.
APU began shelling at once on several sections of the front, but the main flew in the private sector near Avdeevka, occupied by the militia. Half an hour later the infantry of the 58th brigade went, in groups of 15-20 people each. In total, up to two infantry companies participated, with the support of the company tanks and a few batteries of mortars and artillery. Despite the thunderstorm and heavy rain, the attack failed, the militia detected the advance of the infantry and pressed it with machine-gun and mortar fire.
It all dragged on to 16: 30. Then there was a break to 17: 50. Then the shelling began and stretched to 22: 00. I didn’t know what attack came this time late in the evening. The front under Avdiivka boomed until 2 at night, the result for the APU was the same.
27 May, Friday.
After yesterday's attempts to break through and heavy shelling, until the evening it was quiet. Which by the way surprised everyone. Here and in the usual days “truce - usually noisy, how many of these Fridays we survived in two years, and this time we expected the resumption of fighting.
In 20: 30 simultaneously shelling began in all hot spots on the front of the DPR. The south of Kominternovo and Sartan rustled in the south, at the same time, Dokuchaevsk, and with it the whole west of Donetsk revived - Aleksandrovka, Petrovka, Staromikhaylovka. Connected north - Volvo, Zhabunki, Oktyabrsky, Airport, Spartak and further north - YaPG, Broad and Iron beams, Gorlovka and Zaytsevo, Golmovsky and further Lozovoe and Logvinovo. On all fronts, rifle, RPG, LNG, AGS, 82-mm and 120-mm mortars worked.
Minutes through 30, as we all have become accustomed to, the art of the Armed Forces of Ukraine began to work, mainly in the directions - Dokuchaevsk and Staromikhailovka. As it turned out, it was an imitation of action. Arta APU quite dispersed. Ukry floated everything they had on hand, except for the MLRS. Attempts breakthroughs, as on Thursday was not followed.
28 May, Saturday.
Around 00: 15 apparently our gunners received permission to respond. There were a lot of minuses (when it flies away from us). Worked on 30 minutes, with short breaks. Immediately revived all social networks on both sides. A glow began in the area of Sands, which burned is not clear. Officials did not give any comments the next day. However, the art of the APU did not shut up and continued shelling.
1-i and 2-i site of the northern suburb of Donetsk suffered a lot. The next day, the media reported from the affected areas after the shelling of the Ukrainian junta. Ukrainian art bombarded Donetsk to 2 hours of the night. Around the night of 2, a powerful militia retaliation followed again and worked almost without interruption until 4 in the morning. Mortars on both sides rumbled until 6 morning. In general, gunfights and mine attacks at the airport have lasted for a day.

They called with Kominternovo and said that their APU was also noisy from the rifle and AGS. In Gorlovka, quietly, only distant bachi came from Lozovoy and Svetlodarsk. Again break in the shelling. From 22: 20 on the line of defense Lozovoe-Logvinovo battle. In Donetsk, however, the militia worked on several UAVs at once. One flew off and was shot down over Kalininsky district, in the center of the city fell into the Kalmius river.
Apparently, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine wanted to find out what was so "washed" them, so they hung the UAV over Donetsk - over the Kuibyshev, Kalinin, Petrovsky districts. Over Gorlovka, Yasinovataya and YaPG. Air defense militia tried to knock them mainly from the memory.
In 22: 35 began heavy shelling of the positions of the DPR near Avdiivka and Yasinovataya. Mortars and art of the Ukrainian Armed Forces covered by squares.

Three children were left without a father, the fourth was soon to be born. task: caught on a thermal imaging sight. The enemy had it, our fighters do not have such a sight for the whole platoon. We are stingy with our lives. "
By the way, at first they didn’t recognize ukry, the loss of part of Zaitsevo, then they said that they were in neutral, which means they didn’t lose anything, then the regrouping was told, and in general “you're lying.”
