On September 5, the Ukrainian government and the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) came to a ceasefire agreement after talks were held in Minsk, Belarus. But before the ceasefire went into effect that evening, both sides launched attacks on each other. The DNR assaulted Ukrainian positions in the city of Mariupol, while the Ukrainians attacked DNR checkpoints on the road leading from Mariupol to Donetsk.
VICE News headed north of Donetsk to the town of Yasynuvata to check on reports that the town had come under fresh artillery fire that left residents living in their basements and without basic amenities.
As the ceasefire held the next day, civilians in the village of Telmenovo were picking through the ruins of their homes, which were hit by shelling in the hours before the ceasefire began. We also traveled to Novoazovsk to speak with a local DNR commander who had little faith the ceasefire would hold for long.

Go get it Indiana!
Nah man
It's wonderful how they managed to preserve it in such a good condition

@@cardenas8995 actually many of them were produced till late sixties and even seventies and after that most of them were preserved in special warehouses in lubricant. It was stored there until early 90's, when most of them were sold, because nobody had money in former USSR countries. But some of them managed to stay safe in those warehouses till those days. So it is just like brand new. And you can easily find ammunition for it, because it uses stock 9mm parabellum bullets, which are popular today too.

Flight MH17 Broke Apart When Hit by High-Energy Objects, Report on Ukraine Crash Finds: bit.ly/1qC2SBC
"High-Energy Objects" we will never get ansers, they prefer to cover up
*****
could be "Royal Shell" was after that aswell, think its more about a war with russia tho
"High energy objects", you mean bullets. Just say it like it is.
Is there any new information about a attack by DPR on Mariupol ??
Birdy Cephon
actually in this context it refers to shrapnel, not bullets. The particular anti aircraft technology that is suspected to be the cause of this is designed to explode close to the aircraft, shredding it with shrapnel, more damage that way.
I love how VICE is showing the conflict from both perspectives! This channel seriously does deserve alot of more subcribers and views! Keep it up!
pov: 2020 Vice got its balls cut off
Just A Random High Schooler facts
How do you figure that? It's like me trying to describe America and picking only some criminal and gopnik types. Different people have joined the Rebellion for totally different reasons. And the Rebellion itself is just the tip of the iceberg. Like yesterday I'm watching a perfectly neutral travel blog about my beloved Kharkov and they're showing the former Dzerzhinsky Square and there it is- Petlyura's red and black flag! So they destroyed the statue of Lenin because it was traumatizing them but they don't give a rat's ass that that frigging flag is traumatizing us. End of story.
IN 2022 , this is all now deemed , " Russian Propaganda" , by NATO and the USA !
facts no longer matter to Western Media or society.
All of this is now a big Russian Lie.
Whoopie Goldberg would want to put the journalist in jail, for telling this side of the story, that is where the USA is right now
hi from 2023
I love these Ukraine dispatches its been a journey watching it from when it first started to now and how far the conflict has come. Please keep them coming.
You need to do some research and watch videos on liveleak if you really want to know what's going on. VICE news only give a diluted vision
Pavel J I do, But there's something about Vice that i just prefer over any other news channel. I'm probably gonna get a lot of shit for this statement but they seem very unbiased and try their best to just show it how it is.
Pavel J can please give some keywords to search for on liveleak? thank you!
backupcd Just go on the "Ukraine" channel: www.liveleak.com/c/Ukraine
The videos flow here
Unfortunately, LiveLeak is overrun by Russian Federation spam bots.
Wake up russia, please stop this war pull your troops out of ukraine before it is too late and russia is too broken. Save russia from putin
Бля чувак, есле бы Россия действительно воевала с Украиной ,Украина не продержалась-бы и 2-3 дней иммено столько надо чтобы доехать на урале с одной до другой её части.
***** Вот именно.
***** Dude, there's satellite imagery of Russian tanks charging to Ukraine.
***** I'm gonna guees from your username that you're nothing but a troll but i'll reply anyways. 90% of the "separatist" are actually Russian civilians. There are hundreds of recruitment stations in
*****
Putin has stated that there's thousands of Russian troops on "vacation" in Ukraine and it's not his problem if they decided to fight for the rebels. Putin needs to man up and stop being a fucking pussy. Just like at the start of this conflict when there were thousands of troops taking over Ukrainian military bases and they were all wearing the same uniform. Once again Putin said they weren't Russian troops. There is also an article that has an instagram of a well known Russian Alpha Group member showing him with weapons in Ukraine. That means there's Russian special forces fighting as well.
That t-90 had a Russian flag on it.
Not a T-90, it's a T-72 ;)
That is what a pro-Russian rebel would put on his tank....Derp Derp
***** yup
well it definitely wasn't a T-90, and when does it show the tank? As in what time in the video?
Pilkington Monk
Thats definetly a t-90. Look at the shape of the turret and the optics.
Ukraine 2014 = Croatia 1991
Same story. Ukraine nobody will help you.
Just buy a lot of weapon, train hard and wait for right moment to hit back.
Can somebody explain me this video footage? supposedly it's the Ukrainian military firing at their own civilians
player.vimeo.com/video/178871166
@@jellyeigenwijsneus3855 yes they are. It is happening since the battle started. And the ukrainian thinks that all civilian living in the war zone are supporting the pro russians and to break the backbone and discouraging them from any future movement they are not fighting a psychological war with them.
Yeah, unfortunately that is true. But if Russia gets officially involved, I think NATO will help
@@bacaps3rgaming631 No, NATO will not help Ukraine!!
Because if they do so, it will be war against Russia=WW3. And nobody wants war against nuclear power state like Russia.
@@kinky1941 technically Russia isn't involved. If NATO goes to war if this escalates the Russians will have to expose their participation
This is a true journalism. Go to see with your own eyes, speak to locals, visit different locations. Professional, profound and true video report. Thank you, guys, for your courage and humanism.

1) that dog is a yes from me
2) his pronunciation of “michael Jackson” is hilarious
felt really bad for the old lady, survived one o the most terrific things in the human history and now has to go trough similar shit in her last years...
Ukraine calls them terrorists now
***** Then why they shell civilians?
***** Bombing schools and hospitals does sound like destroying infrastructure. Bombing buildings filled with innocent people does sound like trying to start a chaos. So to me it seems that Ukraine just doing whatever it takes to make the region unlivable. No matter the cost. Also calling everyone there a terrorist sorta helps to boost the morale.
***** It's all related to how I feel about this situation. I understand that separatists could bomb them too. Just like America could have done the 9/11. But in both cases I find it hard to believe.
@@XxLadrxX i like how you like your own comments just to make sure in your mind that someone could support your unproved opinion with your giant ego...smh
This provides much needed balance to the whole series... the other guy provides such unbalanced reporting. Thank you
collin ohlinger Seriously? Can you give me a source on that?
collin ohlinger wait what? One of vices reporters where tortured by pro russians?
Simon unbalanced? He saw those people for what they really are. Torturing and kidnapping terrorists. And this guy is clearly is biased towards those thugs. Asks citizens implying it was ukranian shells. You don`t do that unless you are from RT. They can`t possibly know.
***** maybe his reports became balanced because he is afraid of getting kidnapped and tortured agAin, so he just plays along with the rebels ballox/rubbish talk. please open them eyes, good woman!
***** lol RT IS MISSING YOU badly!! quick get over there now for your daily dose of nonsense.
With out Vice I would have no idea any of this is happening. There is very little information about this in Sydney.
Good job Vice, cheers.
"We were just holding a defensive position, not attacking..." Unidentified DNR Officer 2014 I flatlined! xD
I find it hilarious how Simon talked mad shit about Russia and got kidnapped. Now he hides behind the Ukrainian army watching them retreat while this reporter gets some real action.
He was detained, not kidnapped, he even lied to them in a video before telling how he was a reporter for a Moscow television. I would detain him also.
Simon got kidnapped not by "talking shit about Russia" He only spoke about what they'd done and said themseves.
Reporting and "talking shit" are 2 different things. It's not Simon's fault that the separatists kidnap and threaten to kill anyone who doesn't show them in a positive, biased light.
BiGKiDXavieR Holloman What he did was express opinion and his personal feelings. Some of the most unprofessional reporting I have ever seen. Anyone with common sense and at least an elementary education could tell he was biased.
SaproPhycs Derpy link to him lying about being from "Moscow television"? I have watched all dispatches as they came out and I can't remember this happening, he always said he worked for "Vice news, internet news agency".
If you believe there is no Rus troops in Ukraine, you are blind. Also, look back in history. Germany(WWll Era) "liberated" a small patch of land near Germany's border. Countries in Europe(like England) said to Germany(I'm using exaggeration) Wtf are you guys doin? Germany said the little population on that small land was mostly German and wanted to be w/ Germany. Germany did it about 2-3 more times w/ the same excuse, and then Blitzkrieg ed Poland, thus, starting WWll.
**On a side note** Rus has taken small portions of Georgia.
History is repeating itself.
Just what i was thinking.
*****
balkan, middle east, parts of south america......wow so much right
*****
who the hell told you that? have you actually seen how it looked like? you can look it up how it looked like before the US ''intervention''. same goes to afganistan
Sorry, but correction. Russia never took any part of Goorgia, there are a frozen conflict there and was since 1991 after USSR collapsed, two regions in Georgia declared independence, they were not recognized as USA didn't want it. So they still unrecognized regions, they are not a part of Russia neither Georgia.
Man seeing that old ukranian lady was heartbreaking
12:21 *you are insulting the dog right there 😂*
Separatistes is Rusians teroristes goo home za parebrik. Donbas in Crimea Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine.
Crimea was never historically ukrainian, they stole it
12:30 Igor is asked a direct question by the reporter - "When the DNR forces were moving forward yesterday, were they trying to take Maripol? Propaganda response, "We are just holding a defensive position, we're not attacking? Only in Russia does moving forward = "defensive".
Showing these videos to Western audience is a failure, they don't understand the specifics of this regions, hell, most people in the west can't locate their city on the map.
Well your are technically correct i mean to make an true documentary you needed to show the different perspectives of each side, i hope both Ukraine and Russia are at peace
not only did she live like that during WWII but now she has to relive it again at her old age..dang i feel sorry for her :...............(
5:24 that PPSH-41 . such a sexy looking gun.
That PPsH-41 belongs in a museum!
I hope people realize this situation has gone far beyond trying to figure out who is in the right and who is not.
The important thing is that it stops.
If only this had aged better...
I see here many comparison between Simon and Henry who one is better in reporting. Both are good and Henry significantly improved the but is one basic difference between them Simon understands more what is going on with political and historical point. Those people detect this so they try to tell a fairy tale to Henry. More reliably is Simon's reporting
I love this guy in the end, 'well, no heavy offensives conducted by us'. Meaning they do attack but not in large numbers yet.
13:14 I'm pretty surprised that the separatists were able to keep a straight face when they said there aren't any Russians there.
LOL... This guy is the Ultimate Commie Badass! He's rockin nothing but a beret, a tank top, and his trusty yet horribly inaccurate PPSh-41. What a commendable bad ass, he's like a Russian Texan or something lol.
Bless these people and bring them peace.
Henry, you are brave and I thank you for your excellent service in putting clarity into a murky situation - however, I start to fear that you are too brave sometimes. Please, just ease off 10%. Artillery shells can't read those "press" signs.
The Kiev army has been shelling citizens indiscriminately, I won't even start by questioning where DNR/DPR got their weapons from because they have all the rights to get better equipments to DEFEND themselves against such an aggression. All I can say is go DPR/DNR! You are the true freedom fighters fighting for your ideology, beliefs, and the people!
Thank you my dearest. Sinn Fein! 😀
Dpr/dnr are just buffer states between eu and Russia lad yall getting played
@@dennisjohnson7779 It goes a lot deeper than that. Yesterday I found out that a Ukrainian movie studio made a movie about Simon Petlyura- the thing whose scum almost lynched my great grandfather and raped my grandmother. And Blinken, Nuland and Zelensky stood by and let it happen. There is no common ground between us. And even if Donbass falls, it's gonna change bubkes. End of story.
how is the situation now? i am worried about civil people
It seems to me like the Ukrainian leadership really doesn't want this to end, they don't supply their own troops with the proper equipment to wage a war and they don't seem like they are sending in support troops. The DNR does not look like they are only 1/2 commited they are all in and anything less by the Ukrain leadership is just sad and i feel sorry for the Ukrainian people who have a paper tiger leader like Poroshenko
My heart breaks seeing all those innocent people suffer.I'd never thought brother would go against brother in Ukraine
I am a little confused on what is going on overall with this conflict. Can someone please explain what is happening?
Just curious, what camera is used to film this?
Make love, not Novorussia
Don't tell me that artillery hit 150 feet away. It was close, but not that close.
If it was 60 yards you are dead and they’re aiming for you.
6:30 "Осетия". Osetians are proud of their presense. Russian modern granade launcher, rebel group leader with WW2 machine gun, rocket shelling few meters near british journalist. 13:22 "За Ростов", "For Rostov" (russian city) on the medal, "Вежливые люди" ("Polite people") on T-shirt, it's russian paramilitary organization.
After the close call here, we headed out... To a place, rumored to have heavy shelling and firefights, into the depths of hell. "Don't you love vice for putting themselves in danger to get a accurate documentation of these professions.
I feel really bad for the civilians living situation, but they have to believe that Poroshenko is doing everything he can to help. He is not just sitting in his office playing solitaire. Its a slippery slope now, because the pro-russian forces are attacking and the Ukrainian troops are standing their ground and defending, so I believe it is hard to send aid, as it may be risky. Hopefully everything will stop soon and all will get better.
i want to help the Ukrainians so much i wish i could be over there and help them fight for their freedom
Yeah, helping them to kill civilians in Donbass and honor Bandera sounds good.

Does anyone know who is technically winning the war right now? Hard facts please. I'm very curious about what is going on.
Since about the time of the Russian humanitarian aid convoi the rebels have been pushing back Ukrainian troops on most fronts. There were also up to three encirclements where a lot of Ukrainain troops and volunteer battalions were entrapped. Right up to the "ceasefire" it looked like the rebels were encircling Mariupol to take it from Ukraine.
Suyamu
Thanks for the info.
Prepping Teen I'd say it's a stalemate, neither side is winning and it's just a bit of a mess really. And *****, how's about you go have a bit of bum fun with your bald midget president?
Seps are winning. They basicaly decimated Ukrainian army South group during last counter offensive. and lay siege to the Mariupol. Captured almost whole border with Russia. Captured Lugansk airfield and pushed Ukrainian troops north to Schastie this basicaly eliminated any threat to Lugansk.
There is site that count all armour and heavy equipment losses by both sides in this war only by photo/video proofs. With it can see how dire situation are for Ukrainian army.
lostarmour.info
In Easter Ukraine, Russian (ahem) Pro-Russian forces, of course. Russian army has now officially entered Ukraine and helping the pro-Russians advance
@2:20 that's farther than 50 yards but still too damn close for comfort, that's for sure.
Now that there are two points of view on vice news about this conflict, I am really satisfied! This is actually getting interesting!
Silly how Russian people consider WW2 in 1941-1945.
No one told them they started war as friends with Germany 2 years earlier.
Yes, they did win the war. But the truth should be told whole.
Почему никто не говорит что Европа отдала Гитлеру Чехословакию(Мюнхенское соглашение 1938 года (называемое также Мюнхенский сговор) - соглашение между Германией, Великобританией, Францией и Италией) ,почему умалчивают что Польша принимала участие в разделе Чехословакии вместе с Германией. But the truth should be told whole.
Vice give views from both sides and it's pretty valid.
wow that lady survived ww2 only to see a other war from her own government.
6:30 the word "Osetia" is written in the wall. So cute that after 6 year russians still remember what they did in Georgia
They defended the people who didn't want to be apart of Georgia. The Georgian gov should've respected the people's rights of choice of independence or joining another country.
Gotta love the Maxim Magazine in the bottom left 2:58
That artillery wasn't 50 yards away, get your depth perception checked! You would have been hit with shrapnel. They were dropping way off,
That PPSH-43 is Badass.
*PPSH-41
I like how they use soviet symbols in their flags, that are basically same as a swastika :)). Lets hope we see those flags burning.
ignorant
Unfortunately this reminds me of Bosnia, a very serious and bloody fight that the locals don't understand why. Seeing civilians living in basements is hard - and the kids and the old effect me even more.. When all is said and done - will it change the average Ukrainian's lot in life? In Bosnia = not really.
I hope this conflict has a better ending; but I doubt it. War has always been started by the rich and political - fought by their poor citizens that don't really understand why they should hate their enemy...
"large number of high-energy objects" that "pierced the plane at high speed", isn't a SAM basically a huge shot gun shell that flies
This guy and his team, as well as your other Ukraine correspondent deserve a serious pay rise and some recognition within the journalistic community, their bravery is amazing.
What I hate the most about this series is that every time Ukrainians or Russians speak they chose what to translate and what literally not to write subtitles for as if she didn’t say anything or said something completely different with their intonation, it’s pretty blunt bias.

Who is honestly the best people in this war, leave your opinion way I am really interested who the better guy in this road, keep it nice and friendly!
David n I agree with ya on that, but yet what about the innocent people in the war.
I'd say the Ukrainians are the better. The DPR commander in the video said it himself that they won't stop until they destroy the root of Ukraine's "fascism" telling me that they want the war to continue. The commander then says that the Ukrainians are the only ones who propose cease-fires telling me that the Ukrainians are the only ones wanting the war to stop. I can't believe that those innocent civilians are blaming Poroshenko for their current conditions when it is the people they're supporting, the DPR and Russia, who actually want the war to continue.
Miners that took arms to protect their homes!
When Crimea got captured I would've said Ukraine would be the best government to control Eastern Ukraine. Now even if Ukraine reclaims it's eastern country side, the DPR movement made it so that everyone living in Eastern Ukraine (should West Ukraine recapture the area) would be discriminated against worse than Japanese in United States during WW2. Too much blood has been shed for a reunion to be the best solution for the citizens for Eastern Ukraine.
Junta asks for ceasefire when they start to lose then during casefire they regroup and break the ceasefire again. fyi Its the third ceasefire.

I have a question, is vice news doing videos on both Russian and Ukrainian sides?
for some strange reason putin doesn't want the ukraine to join nato i wonder why ....
That basement might seem save but it's a death trap :'(
I am sorry, but I just don't understand the complaints from the people of the DNR. They complain about Poroshenko and ask why he is doing this if he loves Ukraine and its people. Do the people of the DNR even count as Ukrainians anymore seeing that they want to separate and eventually join Russia? I know shelling civvies is wrong, but how can you complain if you are with the other side. They are enemies of the rest of Ukraine but they still feel as if they should be treated as a Ukrainian. They should be treated as Russians seeing that is what they want to be. I hate to be a dick but I am just saying that they are sheer idiots if they think that the Ukrainian military will protect them when they choose to be on the side of the people that hate and fight with western Ukrainians. It just doesn't make sense...
WTF IS AN ICED SOY CHA???
lol that commercial is so annoying. xD
What a mess. War tourists, mercenaries, normal people killing each other. Can't really point at anyone and say "these are the good guys who didn't do anything wrong".
This is eye opening footage of the DNR, that older commander seemed very experienced and the DNR military seems 100% confident. That is a very bad sign for the Ukrainian army who seem very hesitant and distrustful of their command. Central Intelligence Agency I wonder if Ukraine and Russia would accept Dontesk as an independent self governed region within Ukraine? Russia and Ukraine could go back to playing peaceful politics and both sides could save face. Is anyone confident that the Ukrainian central government can stop a volunteer army funded and supported by Russia? Even if the volunteer army is routed (which may be unlikely), if Russia committed to invade and hold Eastern Ukraine, could even the EU and Ukraine together stop them? Wars can be won with hearts and minds, Vietnam was, what is the Ukrainian government doing to win back the separatists? Shelling civilian areas seems likely to swell the DNR ranks with berserkers.
Cool Looking Russian Weapons :D geez wonder who supplied them uzbekistan(sarcasm) :D hahaha
That's old Soviet veapon from Ukrainian warehouses.
sure it is ;)
These reporters have mad balls. They have a good chance of being blown up and caught up on the power lines like in the last video. Im sure that they think about that from time to time...
This DPR Commander gave me a laugh. 6 of them held of a Company-sized Tank assault...for 3 days??? Highly doubtful because while I have seen how some of these Ukrainian Troops switched sides at the beginning and/or are in low spirits due to not being given the proper amounts of equipment and clear orders, there are more that are wanting to fight for their country. So I would guarantee that not only was the attack point reconned prior to the attack, there were probably infantry that also did reconnaissance during the fight and would have known that there were only 6 guys and thrown everything at them. Propaganda
Putin just stop please
He didn't start anything. Nuland and Kolomojsky did. 😀
so i have watched all of the previous episodes of this, and i am speechless about the constant blaming of fascism and nazism the "seperatists" keep directing towards Kiev. what does this mean, where does it come from? not one single time are they asked about where this comes from? its like they dont see the greater picture at all, or either im missing some piece here..
Search up the azov battalions -
In one of this videos Ukrainian soldiers had a flag with Natzi symbols on it. They are notorious for being sadists towards people . Murder and torture is their thing. That’s why. ! Also they parade in Kiev with tortures and Natzi swastika , not hiding their Natzi origin.

Russian guns are the most widely exported and for a reason they work are easy to manufacture in mass and are insanely easy to break down clean strip and shoot.
its still one of the best weapons! might be even better then any "nato" smg its a good allrounder, also it can get wet, muddy and cold it will always be 100% functional! :D
Would you rather throw a rock at them
+Corndog Johnson I would still take a modern weapon in a modern conflict. This joke commander never used this weapon. He just likes the ww2 rebel look he's got going there lol. I would LOVE to confront him with his pssh41 firing rounds weaker than a 9mm.
PatTheRiot they are not that weak 9mm is 600 jouls while 7.62x25 is 544 jouls.and some of the hotter surplus ammo can Peirce level 3a armor.
