Militia Soldier - Elena, from sloviansk English subs
Good day. My name is Elena. I am in the city of Sloviansk.
I am native to this town.
I have joined the mitia ranks. I cannot bear this anymore.
There is no water, electricity in Sloviansk. People get water from fountains.
We are being bombed every day by Ukrainian Army on orders from Junta. Artillery, Airforce. And they drop bombs not on check-points.
They drop bombs on peoples houses. People don't have anywhere to live, anything to eat. People live in cellars with their children. More than half of civilian population is still here.
How long are we to bear this.
How is it that government sends Right Sector, mercenaries on their own people.
They say that there are mercenaries here, Chechens and so on. The people fighting are from here - Sloviansk, that came out in defence of their own city. They want to just live, not merely exist.
Terrible things are happening.
For example an incident that happened recently. Pasengasr plane was flying by.
And Ukrainian attack aircraft hid behind it.
Than he lowered his altitude a bit and droped bombs on residential sector of Semenovka town.
Than he regained the altitude and hid behind the pasengasr plane again. Than he left.
They wanted to provoke the militia to shoot at the passenger plane. There would be a global catastrophe. Civilians would have died.
Than they would say that terrorists here did it. There are no terrorists here. There are regular people here,
that came out in defence of their own city.
They can't bear this anymore. How long is this going to go on.
There are children here, elderly people, WW2 veterans that have to live through it again.
Don't you have any humanity left in you?

The wife of one of the fighters of the punitive operation in the south-east of Ukraine, named only as Elena, told of the miserable situation, in which the Ukrainian military men found themselves in the Donbass. The woman spoke to UNN news agency.

The servicemen of the 72nd Brigade remain in the area of the combat zone in the south-east of Ukraine. They receive neither the promised support, nor food supplies. Militia continue to attack them, RIA Novosti reports.

"My husband told me that all the men remain in a very heavy mental state. He said that the situation was very scary. He realized that he and other soldiers of the Ukrainian army were simply dumped in the area, where they stay," the woman said.

Shortly before that, relatives of the Ukrainian military men picketed the building of the Poroshenko administration. Some of the people are outraged that it is common citizens, who take part in the fighting. Others demand professional commanders be appointed. Someone else claim that the military men are deprived of basic living conditions.
