The radical organization Right Sector fighters are recruited into the
Aydar battalion of the Ukrainian National Guard destroyed by the militia with
its fighters, Chairman of the Supreme Council of the self-proclaimed Lugansk
People's Republic (LPR) Alexey Karyakin said at a press conference on Saturday.
Aydar is one of the many "nominal"
battalions of the Ukrainian law-enforcers that participated in the hostilities
in the South-East of the country. According to a report by the Ministry of
Defense of Ukraine, on June 17, the Aydar battalion without the consent of the
command of the special operation decided to storm the militia in Lugansk, but
was ambushed and suffered serious losses despite the received reinforcement.
Head of the self-proclaimed Lugansk People's Republic
Valery Bolotov said that the militia had almost completely destroyed Aydar.
After the incident, the Ministry of Defense recalled
the remains of Aydar and decided to disband it, but recently it became known
that President Petr Poroshenko had suspended the decision.
"Now, we have information that the destroyed
Aydar battalion is being remaned with fighters of the Right Sector in order to
show that it was not defeated and operates on a full scale," said
Karyakin. He noted that the Right Sector was actively operating on the
territory of the LPR.
A road leading to the village of Izvarino, in which
area there is a checkpoint between the self-proclaimed Lugansk People's
Republic (LPR) and Russia, is permanently fired at by snipers, Chairman of the
Supreme Council of the LPR Alexey Karyakin said at the press conference today.
"The road to Izvarino lies directly through the
area of accumulation of the Ukrainian forces. There occur such situations, when
snipers fire at passing cars. Provocations occur on the part of the Ukrainian
army," Karyakin said.
He noted that such incidents with participation of the
Ukrainian law enforcers are confirmed rather often. On the night of June 21, a
battle between the LPR militia and the Ukrainian law-enforcers began in the
territory of Ukraine, near the customs checkpoint Izvarino on the border with
Russia.
