The Ukrainian army continues to gather military equipment and troops at the contact line. Armored vehicles and up to 300 people from the nationalist battalion including foreign mercenaries have arrived in Donskoye township in the south of Dokuchaevsk town, “Essence of Time” unit reported on their official page in the social networks in the evening of April 20th.

The combat continues on the Gorlovka, Donetsk, and Mariupol directions. The hottest spots are Zaytsevo village, the industrial area of Avdeevka town, and Sakhanka township. The tension is growing in the area of Dokuchaevsk town; the Ukrainian army is approaching the town, provoking local clashes. Also, the arrival of Ukrainian military equipment spotted in the area of Volnovakha town.

“Over the past two days, the number of shellings across the front line has increased. The activity of enemy’s drones and snipers is high. In general we may say that the Ukrainian army and Kiev’s mercenaries received an order to destabilize the situation at any price, excluding, for now, the direct and open invasion,” the report states.

Earlier the intelligence of Donetsk People’s Republic spotted the arrival of up to 100 enemy’s infantrymen in the area of Zhovanka village. All soldiers wear black uniform; some of them speak American English. It is possible that the Ukrainian army command redeployed foreign mercenaries to the front-line.
