BREAKING: At least two people slightly injured in shelling by Russian-led separatists toward kindergarten in #Luhansk, eastern #Ukraine
Separatist sources accusing #Ukraine of a "large-scale" shelling this morning and apparently Russian media is already repeating these claims. It looks like a pretext to justify an escalation.
Heavy shelling seems to be ongoing in multiple places across the front. This video is reportedly from Mariinka:
The #OSCE has recorded use of artillery this morning, based on reports from both sides - diplomatic sources

Too early to tell if this will be the start of an escalation for a pretext. But it certainly has the potential.

#US envoy to #UN says evidence on the ground is that #Russia is moving towards an "imminent invasion", says "this is a crucial moment"
My assumption that the sudden change in Blinkens schedule was triggered due to the Russian written response was not correct:

#Russia says there is no invasion of #Ukraine in plans - Interfax citing Russian response on security guarantees
#Russia says de-escalation requires that #Ukraine comply with #Minsk agreements and no more weapons should be delivered to Ukraine - RIA
Rus response: "In the absence of the readiness of the American side to agree on firm, legally binding guarantees to ensure our security from the US and its allies, Russia will be forced to respond, including through the implementation of measures of a military-technical nature"
Another load of completely ridiculous and unrealistic demands by #Russia. They are clearly not interested in diplomacy. But don't jump conclusions. "Military-technical measures" is a wide term.
