Ukraine is heating up. Rebels seem to be getting ready for a major push.

via Kyivpost.
Over the past 24 hours, we observed over 40 attacks by Russian-terrorist forces on Ukrainian positions in the ATO zone, including attacks with the use of heavy armaments (caliber over 100 mm).
In addition to the “traditional” Donetsk and Mariupol springboards, the terrorists are active in the Artemivsk and Luhansk sectors. Armed gangs delivered fire strikes on Pisky, Doslidne, Avdiivka, Shyrokyne, Hranitne, Luhanske, Svitlodarsk, Mayorske, Kurdyumivka, Zolote, Rosadki, Lozove, Sokolniki, Trokhizbenka, Stanytsia Luhanska, and Krymske.
In the Luhansk sector, Russian insurgents used heavy-caliber machine guns, 120-mm mortars, and AGS-17 Plamya automatic grenade launchers, while sabotage and reconnaissance groups attempted to penetrate the tactical rear of the Ukrainian forces.
During shelling of the Ukrainian positions near Shyrokyne, the terrorists used 122-mm artillery and 120-mm mortars. Near Pisky and Opytne, armored vehicles (BMP-2 infantry combat vehicles, and BTR-80 armored personnel carriers) were used as part of several firing groups which have advanced towards the front line.
By my count we're seeing fighting in at least 15 countries (I stopped at 15) but I consider the conflict in Ukraine to be the most serious with regard to US interests.

Its also the fight that the State Dept seems least interested in.

That's a shame because it appears that the ceasefire is over and more dying is to be done.  Did you notice all the listed locations?  The Rebels seem to be getting ready for a major push.

I figure on that and have no idea why its happening.

I thought that all objectives had been achieved.

Looks like I was wrong.
