9 Ukrainian soldiers were killed, and 27 were injured on Monday at the Donetsk airport in eastern Ukraine. The soldiers were killed by tank fire, along with 3 civilians who've died and 5 injured. The Ukrainian government reports that 50 separatists fighters have also died. They have been fighting pro-Russian forces for months, and it is still an ever-increasing problem. Not only this, but a ceasefire was even signed by rebel leaders and the Ukrainian government several weeks ago, and was not withheld.
I think this is a struggle that needs to end soon. what's even more shocking is that the Ukrainian forces fire on the civilian areas around the airport periodically as well.
It's obvious that Ukraine wants to split from economic ties with Russia and become a part of the European Union, but Vladimir Putin disagrees with it. It's also an issue that started with the Ukrainian government trying to cancel the status of Russian language as a second state language [it is] and refuse to provide autonomy to the eastern Ukraine, which caused the sudden unrest as well. Basically, both sides seem to fail to negotiate. The violence should end; no one is benefiting from it.
By pertaining to violence, these countries have lost lives. THIS is just
ReplyDeletegoing downward if Putin doesn't take the matters in hand. Consequently, the fighting will lead to more deaths more. Problems.
I personally do not like violence... especially war.. I agree that these Countries are loosing too many lives .....clearly doesn't solve everything if there is still war
