The only military strategy the Ukrainian forces have left is to target civilians and to do random acts of sabotage. They just shelled Donetsk in one of the largest attacks on the city since this whole thing began in 2014.

The city of Donetsk has been subjected to the largest-scale Ukrainian artillery attack since the region rebelled against Kiev in the wake of the 2014 armed coup in Kiev, local officials have said. A cathedral was among the buildings hit by Kiev’s artillery.

Ukrainian troops fired 40 rockets from Grad multiple rocket launchers at several neighborhoods of central Donetsk at around 7 a.m. local time (4 a.m. GMT), Mayor Aleksey Kulemzin said on social media. Several conventional shells also hit the city both before and after the barrage, he added.

Official images following the strikes show damaged buildings and cars amid widespread destruction. The central dome of a cathedral has been hit, according to photos published on social media. At least one projectile landed near a school, while others struck homes, shops and a children’s playground, according to the mayor.

This is not a viable strategy for military success and it is just another sign of desperation by the Jewish regime in Kiev.

They’ve actually been shelling civilians in the eastern part of the country for years. Russia had every reason to intervene in this conflict militarily because of this. In fact, you could argue that they should have intervened earlier considering it has been fully admitted that the Minsk accords were a deliberate scheme to buy them time to build up Ukrainian military power. The former Ukraine leader Poroshenko and Mama Merkel admitted that this was the case.
