Eastern Ukraine dragged deeper into war

  • 9 years ago
Pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine have ripped up peace agreements and vowed to go on the offensive. The Ukrainian authorities have said they will fight back. But evidence suggests Russia is continuing to send in large numbers of troops and equipment, despite repeated denials from Moscow. Can Kiev really match that kind of military muscle? And does it have sufficient support among local people in the areas the separatists threaten to take over?
