October 22, 2016 Nowadays it is obviously
for an average Ukrainian citizen that Russia has only one fully acceptable way
to connect continental Russia and newly annexed Crimea peninsula. The matter is
that neither new bridge nor train or car ferries meet Russia’s requirements. The
only thing that can meet their imperial aspirations is to cut by heavy artillery a land
corridor from Russia to Crimea. To do that they have to take the city of Mariupol first. So you can read the following brief information
just from this point of view.
The Secretary of the National Security and
Defense Council of Ukraine (NSDC) Oleksandr Turchynov left for Mariupol sector
due to a significant escalation of hostilities recorded primarily in this area
of the anti-terrorist operation (ATO) zone in the past two weeks. He held a
meeting with the ATO generalship there.
According to Turchynov, more than 3,000
projectiles hit the Ukrainian troops' positions in the Mariupol sector over the
last week alone, Censor.NET reports citing the NSDC press service. The NSDC
secretary visited the areas of the fiercest enemy strikes on positions of the
Ukrainian military at the forward defense line including the outskirts of
Kominternove, Lebedynske, and Vodiane - the epicenter of the recent enemy
artillery strikes. The recent developments at the frontline and measures to
efficiently counter provocations of the Russian terrorist forces were discussed
at the meeting. The NSDC secretary inspected procurement and the staff's
preparedness to carry out combat missions in winter.
