Russian-Backed Separatists Blame Kiev For Death of US Observer in Rebel-Held Eastern Ukraine
(CNSNews.com) – Moscow-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine blamed Ukrainian special forces for the death of an American observer killed in an apparent landmine explosion Sunday – saying it part of the “provocation” increasingly deployed by Russia and its proxies engaged in various conflicts.
Lieutenant-Colonel Andrey Marochko, spokesman for the “people’s militia” of the self-proclaimed Luhansk (aka Lugansk) People’s Republic, blamed Ukrainian “saboteurs.”
