    On September 6, a day-long ceasefire in eastern Ukraine was broken when pro-Russia forces shelled Ukrainian tanks driving into Mariupol. VICE News correspondent Simon Ostrovsky was in the city before, during, and after the ceasefire, and traveled to Mariupol's Eastern checkpoint as it endured the attacks.

They basicly doing ethnic cleaning of russians populated areas the the east, killing ethnic russians, burning cities. About a million of people escaped from those parts to Russia because they afraid of the nazi government.
      Others fight for their land...and winning becuse they fight for their home not for money like the ukraine do.

    I have to mention that in certain cases the subtitles dont match.. For instance at 6.41, the soldier simply says the "separatists", while it is translated as "the so-called separatists."
    Taking a more neutral stance would add to the credibility of Vice News.

      I dont think you get the point here, maybe it's a little too complicated for you. So I'll explain it to you at the level of 3rd grade: Not everybody speaks Russian and would understand what is being said. Therefore, a translation is needed and here that is provided in the form of subtitles. And In order to get an accurate picture of the situation, you need to have accurate subtitles.
      If this was too hard to comprehend, I'd suggest you use a dictionary. ;)

    He missed a good story at 3.09 That Ukrainian tank with "death to enemies' and 'heading to Moscow' written on it got stopped by an anti tank concrete tripod which has 'stop the war' written all over it. It was widely reported in the Ukrainian media. The tank wasn't hit by an explosion as Simon suggests (he should stop making silly suggestions by now, since he has zero understanding of combat) but hit the concrete tripod due to a driver's mistake.

    • @elenaa5706

      Well NATO is right, the rebels do have military training.

      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BM-21_Grad
      And on the satalite imagery,
      that convoy could have been a Ukrainian one thanks to this very poor satellite image.
      There should be a series of images showing where exactly the photo was taken, but instead, they are shown to be in obscure locations in Ukraine.
      As i said before:
      "This is not solid evidence, or even evidence at all, and most certainly not even close to the type of evidence that sanctions are imposed on."
      The only thing that makes these photos legit is that they are backed up by NATO.
      But NATO is just as anti Russian and anti democracy as their best friends, the Ukrainian government, so that just gives me another reason to discredit them.

    To the Westerners here, please watch the interview with UA volunteer battalion, hear what they have to say, even they said they are fighting their former friends who they served with in Afghanistan, they are currently holding a rally Kiev wanting to know who allowed for this to happen, why when new power came in the first law was about languages (that really is what sparked this conflict off, tell me i'm lying you hate spreading C#nts!), why not sort out the economy first.
    And as a Russian, I know Russia is supplying weapons, and there are plenty Russian volunteers to, there are plenty foreign volunteers on UA side as well, you cant deny this.
    You really should stop with the Putin payroll puppet BS, he doesn't need to pay us, seriously.
    When I was living in UK I met a girl from Kiev who ran away from all this when maiden just began, she is anti-Russian and she told me that her and her friends were paid to go to maiden, I don't expect anyone to believe me, but there is enough corruption, propaganda and bullshit of all sorts on both sides!
    And i'm sorry UA MOD saying they lost only like 800+ soldiers is just laughable, they have lost more vehicles then people already, but I get it, it would be demoralizing to hear the truth.

      Separatists appeared not a week later but weeks later if not months, did you forget about the barricades manned by unarmed people, did you forget about the thousands of unarmed people (armed with clubs mostly) in the streets chanting "Russia", armed separatists appeared way later, after the UA army was sent in, how many videos are on RUclips of ordinary citizens stopping columns of UA army, or stopping tanks, one week my ass. there are plenty vids of UA army just leaving their armored vehicles and weapons, that when it began, when the east got their first weapons, Russia only started to supply them once it became a full armed conflict.
