This is false. The War in Donbas began 12 April 2014, when a fifty-man commando unit headed by Russian citizen Igor Girkin seized Sloviansk in Donetsk oblast. In response, the Ukrainian military launched an operation (ATO) against them on 13 April 2014. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Donbas https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-27035196 https://outride.rs/en/topic/ato-en/ https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2014/11/21/russias-igor-strelkov-i-am-responsible-for-war-in-eastern-ukraine-a41598
