Volgens mij is Putin zijn macht over de terroristen kwijt. Het is een losgeslagen bende op coke en wodka die hun wapens krijgens van Viktor Janoekovitsj en zijn maffiavriendjes.
Kutfransen met hun kutmistrals. Als ze al niet eens bereid zijn de export van wapens naar Rusland stop te zetten, kun je ervan uitgaan dat Rusland wederom met fluwelen handschoenen zal worden aangepakt door Europa. Handelsbelangen over de lijken van onschuldige burgers. Eigenlijk precies wat ik vanochtend op de voorpagina van de VK las.quote:Op maandag 21 juli 2014 13:44 schreef deelnemer het volgende:

As of 12.00 - 282 bodies found Justin Bronk, a research analyst at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), tweeted that a section of the cockpit showed damage consistent with attack by a SA 11 missile fired from a Buk launcher, which detonates a short distance away from a target, showering it with shrapnel.

62.ua reports that Andrei Lysenko, the spokesman of the Ukrainian National Security and Defence Council (SNBO), has told reporters at a briefing today that Ukrainian forces have seized key positions near Donetsk Airport.
He said (translated by The Interpreter):
quote:"Our soldiers have managed to take the main routes into Donetsk from Donetsk Airport. Alongside our offensive operations, work is under way to fortify firing positions, which will enable us to draw up new forces for the Ukrainian troops and continue the offensive.
Work is under way right now on many fronts, including Donetsk, to clear the approaches to the town and destroy the terrorists' checkpoints. There is an order: air strikes and heavy artillery fire will not be used in residential areas."
Another report on the same site cited the press office of the government's Anti-Terrorism Operation, saying that Ukrainian forces were now in control of the village of Peski, just to the north-west of the area of fighting in Donetsk today.

Toegevoegd: maandag 21 jul 2014, 15:56
Update: maandag 21 jul 2014, 16:06
Het Russische ministerie van Defensie zegt dat vlucht MH17 boven Oekrane begeleid werd door een Oekraens gevechtsvliegtuig. De jager zou op 3 tot 5 kilometer afstand van het passagierstoestel hebben gevlogen. Volgens Moskou moet de regering in Kiev daarover uitleg geven.
Ook zegt het ministerie dat de Russen geen raket in de nabijheid van de Maleisische Boeing hebben waargenomen. De Russen vragen de Amerikanen om satellietbeelden ter beschikking te stellen waarop een raket te zien is, "als die beelden er al zijn".
BUK
De Russische militaire top spreekt bovendien tegen dat aan de geestverwanten in Rusland een BUK-raketsysteem of andere andere wapens geleverd zijn.
Volgens de Verenigde Staten en Oekrane is de raket die het vliegtuig trof afgeschoten van zo'n mobiele BUK-installatie, die geleverd was door Rusland, waarschijnlijk inclusief personeel dat hem kon bedienen.
Kiev
De Amerikanen hebben online elf punten gepresenteerd waaruit volgens hen blijkt dat het vliegtuig met een raket is neergeschoten.
Ook na de verklaring uit Moskou trekt de Oekraense regering de beschuldiging over de Russische betrokkenheid niet in. Kiev blijft erbij dat de raketinstallatie mt personeel aan de separatisten geleverd is.

De strijd met de separatisten kost Oekrane ruim 130 miljoen dollar per maand, heeft minister van Financin Sjlapak gezegd. Hij zei dat het land geld nodig heeft om de oplopende rekening te kunnen betalen.
Sjlapak heeft de fractieleiders van de partijen in het parlement ingelicht over de kosten van de militaire operatie.
De Oekraense economie is door de militaire kosten in een half jaar gekrompen met 5 procent. De totale krimp staat dit jaar al op 6,5 procent, terwijl op 3 procent gerekend was.

(Reuters) - For all the tough talk, Europe is not likely to punish Russia over last week's downing of an airliner over Ukraine beyond speeding up the imposition of already agreed individual sanctions when the bloc's foreign ministers meet on Tuesday.
The severity of future European Union sanctions could depend on the Netherlands, which suffered the greatest loss of life when the Malaysia Airlines flight was brought down.

Water supplies to Donetsk stopped, city has water to last five days at most
Donbas Water Company has stopped three pumping stations bringing water to the Siversky Donets - Donbas channel due to damage inflicted during battles, the press office of DTEK energy holding company of Ukrainian businessman Rinat Akhmetov said.
"Due to the three pumping stations which have stopped pumping water to the Siversky Donets - Donbas channel, restrictions have been introduced in water supplies to municipal systems. Even if water is supplied three hours a day, Donetsk's water reserves will last only five days," DTEK said.
DTEK is making efforts to supply Donbas residents with water, the energy holding said.

quote:'Russische miljardairs vrezen sancties'
Russische miljardairs vrezen mogelijke economische sancties vanuit het westen na het neerstorten van het vliegtuig van Malaysia Airlines en de discussie over de schuldvraag.
Dit meldt persbureau Bloomberg op basis van gesprekken met de Russische elite.
Anoniem verklaart een miljardair dat er wordt gevreesd dat Vladimir Poetin een internationale paria gaat worden vergelijkbaar met de president van Wit-Rusland, Aleksander Lukashenko, die ook wel de laatste dictator van Europa wordt genoemd.
Volgens Igor Bunin van het Centrum voor Politieke Technologie in Moskou heerst er ook angst onder de zakelijke elite in Rusland om er iets van te zeggen. Niemand durft nu zich uit te spreken tegen Poetin. “Bij elk teken van rebellie worden ze op hun knien gebracht.”
Alexander Lebedev, een voormalig miljardair die nu eigenaar is van enkele Britse kranten, antwoordt erg pessimistisch te zijn op de vraag of de relatie tussen Rusland en Europa ooit nog gerepareerd kan worden. “De klok is teruggedraaid naar de jaren ‘80”, aldus Lebedev.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces captured local headquarters of militants in Dzerzhynsk (Donetsk region) and began the liberation of the city from terrorist groups. It was reported by Minister of Defense Valeriy Heletey to the Ukrainian President.
The ATO forces set up a foothold near the city of Horlivka and liberated inhabited locality Piesky having shut off communication lines of bandits with the village of Karlivka (Donetsk region).
Besides, the Ukrainian army approached the city of Lysychansk (Luhansk region).

Russia Claims A Ukrainian Su-25 Aircraft Was Tailing MH17 - But It Can't Fly That High
CNN reports that according to the Russian government a Ukrainian jet was tailing Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 before it was shot down.
According to the manufacturer of the Su-25, Sukhoi, the maximum altitude of the Su-25 carrying no external ordnance and stores is only 7 kilometers (7000 meters, 23,000 feet). MH17 was flying at 10,000 meters, about 33,000 feet. By this logic, even if the Su-25 was flying directly under MH17 it would be at least 3 kilometers away. How does that fit with the claims that the Russian government is making?quote:On Monday, Russian officials floated the possibility that a Ukrainian fighter jet might have downed the plane.
Russian monitoring showed a Ukrainian Su-25 fighter jet flying along the same route and within 3 kilometers to 5 kilometers (1.9 miles to 3.1 miles) of Flight 17, Lt. Gen. Andrei Kartapolov of the Russian Army General Staff said at a news conference, Russian state media reported.
"We would like to know why the Ukrainian plane was flying along a civilian route on the same flight path as the Malaysian Boeing," Kartapolov said, according to the reports.
Pro-Russian rebels have also denied responsibility for the shootdown.
In an interview with Cuomo broadcast Monday on CNN's "New Day," the self-declared rebel Prime Minister in Donetsk, Alexander Borodai, said he believed Ukrainian forces either shot the plane down with a surface-to-air missile or, as the Russian general suggested, one of its own fighter jets.
Russians Scramble To Edit Wikipedia So The Kremlin's Claims Make Sense
Today the Su-25 has been given some significant upgrades -- at least on Wikipedia. Several IP addresses that track back to central Moscow appear to have edited the maximum altitude of the Su-25 from 7 kilometers to 10 kilometers to match the flight path of MH17.
