American military drones conducted reconnaissance of the Donbass.

As follows from the available data, the day before, an American military unmanned aerial vehicle RQ-4A Global Hawk was seen in the sky over the Donbass, which was carrying out reconnaissance of the area, most likely fixing the combat positions of the DPR self-defense forces. According to preliminary data, no violations of the airspace of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic were recorded, however, such provocations from Ukraine and the United States could lead to a growing conflict between the two sides.

Experts estimate that the Pentagon helps Ukraine in preparing a massive attack on the NDP and the LNR, especially since the president of Ukraine, Pyotr Poroshenko, earlier announced his readiness to restore the borders of the state, preventing the conflict in the east of the country, however, so far there is no evidence of this information.
