Kiev forces shell LPR 1,128 times since February 17 - JCCC

Kiev forces have shelled the Lugansk People’s Republic 1,128 times using heavy weapons since the contact line situation escalated on February 17, the LPR Office at the Joint Centre for Control and Coordination of issues related to Ukraine’s war crimes (JCCC) reported.

“Over the period from February 17 to September 22, 2022, the LPR Office at the JCCC recorded 1,128 strikes at LPR areas by Ukrainian armed formations which used heavy weapons,” the report said.

The Ukrainian government launched the so-called anti-terrorist operation against Donbass in April 2014.  The peace talks that began soon thereafter failed to reach tangible results due to Kiev’s position to settle the conflict by force. *i*s
