'Their mentality is: 'This is our land, and we won't leave it'. They see their pets and loved ones killed, their homes and gardens destroyed, and they still live here anyway'. Volunteer Alexey Smirnov tells why Donbass people don't want to leave their homeland. For the last 8 years a huge area separating the two sides of the conflict became a 'grey zone'. Its population is suffering from shellings and had been used as a human shield by Ukrainian nationalists more than once. Alexey and his team are working on evacuating people from dangerous zones of the conflict, but most of them return home again. Some of them don't have another place to go, some just can't live without their homeland. Watch our video about how Donbass people live in the grey zone. Follow: https://t.me/militarywave

Comrade Dambiev showed the continuation of yesterday's failed attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the west of Novodonetsk. After blowing up tanks on mines, an infantry fighting vehicle arrives at the same place, disembarks an infantry squad and hurriedly leaves back. The artillery of the 36th army covers the infantry, at 1:01 the wrecked tanks are finally destroyed from the forest plantation from a distance of 200 meters. It clearly shows what happens when the infantry finds itself in an open field without the support of armored vehicles and counter-battery combat. We hope that our future and current combined arms commanders will also watch this video - learning from the mistakes of others is much more logical than from their own. @voin_dv
