Last time occupants have significantly strengthened shellings in Luhansk region. Yesterday, fighters were using MRLS FM-21 ‘Grad’, 152-mm artillery, mortars of different calibers. What is the reason for such an escalation?

We found two different opinions in the web. We bring them to your attention.

‘Krymske and Smolyaninove were shelled not by chance. Our military fixed shellings and self-propelled artillery (on Smolyaninove – 15, on Krymske – 70). 120 ‘Grad’ missiles must be added to this situation and nearly the same number was from 122-mm mortars. Our military say that everything is alike to the preparing to possible breakthrough. After all, Krymske is the strategic crossing through Seversky Donets river… And further – Severodonetsk, Novoaidar etc…’, write Georgiy Suschenko, the blogger.

Well-known volunteer Roman Donik explains the rage of occupants in Luhansk region in the next way: ‘It was unsuccessful attempt to fall down one of the observation posts of 93rd brigade. Why unsuccessful? Because something unsafe for life flew before the attack to the place of personnel concentration. The result is two ‘5 two-hundreds’ (dead – ed.). There is no accurate data about wounded. A lot of. Rage of fighters was expressed by launched 4 packets of ‘Grad’ (70 missiles) and 60 bombs from mortar on our positions’.
