Back in Donetsk anew, I interviewed war correspondent and journalist, Christelle Néant. Christelle arrived in Donetsk in 2016 to report on what had already been two bloody years of Ukraine warring on its former population in the Donetsk and Lugansk Peoples Republics.

Donbass bombing is killing civilians. It is a crime to erect bases amongst civilians. But the Ukraine does not care. To them, it is Russian civilians and not humans. Shame on the West for staying quiet about this.

Interview by Adriel Kasonta, Asia Times, 9/24/22
Dragana Trifković is the general director of the Center for Geostrategic Studies in Belgrade, Serbia.
On September 8, a session was held in the UN Security Council on the topic of arms delivery to Ukraine by the West.
In the introductory part of the session, Trifković spoke about the weapons that were delivered to the battlefield during the war in Yugoslavia, comparing it to the current situation in Ukraine.
In the following interview, Trifković elaborates on that point for Asia Times.
Serbian Analyst: How war in Ukraine resembles past conflict in Yugoslavia
On Saturday, July 30, just after 9pm, thunderous explosions rocked central Donetsk. Shortly after, there were announcements that air defense had shot down Ukrainian-fired missiles containing ‘butterfly‘ (or ‘petal‘) mines.
