Ukrainian activists once again amused the inhabitants of the territories of Donbass uncontrolled by Kiev, having launched a flag of Ukraine into the sky. A video of the “fascinating” process was published by TSN.

60 square meters of “Ukrainian pride” – yellow and blue balloons – flew into the sky from Svetlodarsk in the Donetsk region towards Donetsk.

In the programme it is noted that the emergence of the Ukrainian ensign was met by shots from the territory of the DPR.

“People stood and cried when they saw the flag. They cried on that side because they believe that we will return and help. Friends call me and ask to speed up liberation,” said the serviceman of the UAF with the call sign “Grandfather”.

Also, military personnel of the UAF sent to the territory of the DPR an air parcel with yellow-blue ribbons and leatlets. On them it is written: “Don’t be afraid – you are already free”.

It should be noted that this morning (April 15th) the Ukrainian Armed Forces opened fire at the suburbs the under the control of the Donetsk People’s Republic – Gorlovka, having fired 30 shells at the same time, reported the representation of the DPR in the Joint Center on Control and Coordination (JCCC) on Sunday.

“This morning UAF shelling was recorded in three directions: from Kurdyumovka (under Kiev’s control) to Zaitsevo (under the control of the DPR) — 20 shells of 120mm caliber, from Novoluganskoye (under Kiev’s control) to Dolomitnoye (under the control of the DPR) — 10 shells of 120mm caliber were fired,” stated the representative of the DPR in the JCCC.
