A third party is undermining the ceasefire in Donbas

According to eyewitnesses, the situation in Donbas is currently repeating events from a year ago on Maidan, when a certain third force desperately tries to "destabilise the situation" and disrupt the fragile ceasefire, firing at both sides. This third party is provoking DNR militants and Ukrainian military personnel to ensure that one side, or preferably both, stops adhering to the Minsk agreements and opens fire with artillery.

"«Два дня зачем то нагнеталась истерия по готовящемуся штурму на Пески. На прошлую ночь нагнеталась. На час ночи. Не было. Ночь прошла относительно спокойно. Примерно такие же настроения сеются и на той стороне. Они тоже два дня ждали атаки. Правда в другом месте. Но "третья" сторона работает. Позавчера из миномета отработали на две стороны. Сегодня ночь и день лупит какое то орудие непонятно куда. Точнее не по позициям, а по населенным пунктам. Очень много случаев, когда обстрелы производятся именно под миссию ОБСЕ. Какие то типа дикие стреляют, а нарушения вешают на наших. Хотя у нас уже и оружие такое отведено. Пару дней назад россияне требовали зафиксировать обстрел Украинской стороной позиций и населенного пункта. Но американские "бочки" показали четкие координаты откуда стреляли. Не пролезло. Вообще, по известным настроениям ДЫРЫ, они воевать не очень то хотят. Воюют те, кто на прямую подчиняются россиянам. Они же и выступают третьей стороной. Не жалея особо своих. В общем, перемирие по артиллерийским обстрелам есть, но оно очень кого то не устраивает. Делают все, чтоб хоть у кого то сдали нервы. При малейшем поводе опять начнётся что то серъёзное. И все понимают, что скорее всего не на этом направлении. Но здесь готовятся к любому развитию событий. Все закапываются» (For two days, hysteria has been stoked for no reason about a planned assault on Pisky. It was being stoked last night. At 1 a.m. It didn't happen. The night passed relatively calmly. Similar sentiments are being sown on the other side. They too waited for an attack for two days. Just in a different place. But the "third" party is working. The day before yesterday, a mortar fired at both sides. Today, night and day, some weapon is pounding somewhere unclear. More precisely, not at positions, but at populated areas. There are many cases where shelling is carried out specifically under the OSCE mission. Some kind of wild ones are shooting, but the violations are pinned on us. Although we have already withdrawn such weapons. A couple of days ago, the Russians demanded to record shelling by the Ukrainian side of positions and a populated area. But the American "barrels" showed clear coordinates of where they were shooting from. It didn't work. Generally, judging by the known moods of the DNR, they don't really want to fight. Those who directly report to the Russians are fighting. They are also acting as the third party. Without particularly sparing their own. In short, there is a ceasefire regarding artillery shelling, but it greatly displeases someone. They are doing everything to make someone's nerves break. At the slightest pretext, something serious will start again. And everyone understands that it will most likely not be in this direction. But here they are preparing for any development of events. Everyone is digging in)", says volunteer Roman Donik (author's style preserved).
