The foregoing was announced by the Ukrainian editorial “Ukrinform” stating that in accordance with its own credible resources near the town called Komsomolskoe there is a self-styled manufacturing workshop aimed at production of portable MLRS 9P132“Grad-P” („Partisan”).
The latest developments in Donbas are showing that Russia came up with freshly-elaborated plans for this area. Apart from being a testing ground for newly-manufactured Russia weaponry, Donbas is viewed by the Russians as an ample gun-running point, which is to be used to smuggle arms to the Moscow-controlled terrorist factions of the Middle East including ISIS.
“Grad-P” production capacities
The workshops of Capital Construction and Repairs Directorate subordinate to the private joint-stock company “Komsomolskoe Mining Authorities” are used as a venue for the production of „Grad-P”. Noteworthy, the manufacturing process is organized in 3 shifts lasting 12 hours each, where the workers befit financially a couple of times higher in comparison with their colleagues engaged into work associated with direct line of business pertaining to the aforementioned enterprise.
Another fact worth mentioning is that sky-high production capacities of “Grad-P” do not fall with the needs of terrorists operating in Donbas. Thus, it might be concluded that this missile system produced en masse is targeted for export.
Scope of purchasers
The clients of the respective missile system are multiple and varied, but ice-clear.
Considering the fact that DNR is a rogue entity existing only due to Russian assistance, it may trade only with clients of the same kind, i.e. terrorist organizations, particularly those present in Syria with ISIS on top.
Evidence signaling about the usage of “Grad-P” by ISIS militants is mounting at full tilt starting from the photos from the battle lines and finishing with well-styled video. However, as of late such kind of content started to vanish together with the respective Internet accounts.
In this case KGB-soaked style of Russia Federation is simple and clear as usual. Particularly, it lies with launching massive blame-game campaign prior to the opponent in order to dish the dirt all the through.
To illustrate, it is suffice to recall Russian big-time Internet cover-up after their victorious chants about the takedown of Boeing aircraft in the Ukrainian sky.
Cobweb of lies
The same approached found its way when Eduard Basurin, deputy corps commander of “Ministry of Defense of DNR”, blamed Ukrainian volunteer battalions for shelling one of the Donetsk residential areas from the self-made launcher which as by the words of Mr. Basurin is used by ISIS militants.
The choice to blame volunteer battalions is understandable as well. First and foremost, MLRS „Grad-P” is not
inducted with the Ukrainian army, thus such kind of lame-game would be initially destined to fail, not to mention that Ukrainian defense industry enterprises do not manufacture this missile system at all. In the case of volunteer battalions one might come up with a possible explanation that this kind of weapon was handed to them by somebody, e.g. other volunteers.
However, the aforementioned explanation is quite far-fetched as long as a tacit prohibition to give Ukraine any
weaponry is still in force, thus „Grad-P” could not be brought to it even in theory.
At the same time DNR commander’s phrase about “a specific way of launching “Grad-P”, which is traditionally
used by ISIS militants” initiates certain thoughts, which begin to crystallize if to take into account that the territory of occupied Donbas is a solid platform of mercenaries’ recruitment avid to take part in Syrian hostilities, especially on the side of ISIS. Hence, together with the missile system ISIS gets its battle-seasoned operators, who are able to perform and instruct.
Interestingly, Basurin’s words bear strong resemblance to the recent information campaign about the arms deliveries made by Ukraine to ISIS, which was based on the statement of a detained Lebanese arms trafficker engaged into selling Chinese portable anti-aircraft systems FN6 to ISIS.
The long arm of Moscow
Afterwards it appeared that arrested in Kuwait citizen of Lebanon Osama Hayat together with 5 of other accomplices have never crossed the border of Ukraine. Secondly, as of November, 20 2015 State Export Control Service of Ukraine neither received any request nor allotted any permissions for international arms handovers including those pertaining to export / import / transit through the territory of Ukraine of any Chinese portable anti-aircraft systems FN6. Lastly, it came to light that a bunch of certain weaponry for ISIS was delivered by Russia from the territory of the occupied Donbas via the annexed Crimea. In turn, these weapons came to Donbas in humanitarian assistance convoys.
Under such circumstances puppet regimes of DNR / LNR are quite beneficial for Moscow as it might be used as a sound cover for illicit gains. Furthermore, Russian-assisted manufacturing and export of MLRS “Grad-P” is not a sole evidence of Kremlin’s usage of temporarily occupied territories of the eastern part of Ukraine for the purpose of smuggling weapons to Syria and other regions.
As well as that, in accordance with the information of the Security Service of Ukraine by some unknown reason
ISIS militants are extremely interested in acquiring Ukrainian passports, which got into the hands of DNR/LNR fighters in Donetsk and Lughansk. Considering that, it might be assumed that this was another crafty design cherished by Moscow in order to be able to launch massive information campaign about the Ukrainians combating in the ISIS ranks, while righteous Russia spills blood to put an end to international terrorism.
So what is the general conclusion to be drawn from the entire scope of facts mentioned above? Probably, there is only one way to go and it tells that Russia for the again applies its age-old tactics of grabbing other lands and using them for its sordid motives simultaneously initiating an unprecedented mudslinging campaign against its enemies.
However, these days that kind of approach starts to crumble.
