A Luganszk környékén lévő egyetlen gyalogos átkelőt is lezárták az ukránok, amely parancsot különös odafigyeléssel hajtják végre – írja a Vesztyi. Luganszk és Sztanyica Luganszkaja között mindössze tíz kilométer van. Az újonnan létrejött határvonal családokat választott el egymástól, amelyek a folyó két partján élnek.
Alekszander Zaharcsenko, a DNR vezetőjének nyilatkozatából kiderül, hogy a DNR egy önálló köztársaság és nem lesz soha Ukrajna része – írja a Zvezda TV. „Akármi is történjen Minszkben, a DNR egy önálló köztársaság és soha sem lesz Ukrajna része. Vér választ el minket egymástól” – mondta Zaharcsenko.
A kijevi városvezetés majdnem egymillió dollárra kötött szerződést a francia Lazard Freres SAS tanácsadó céggel pénzügy tanácsadásokra – írja Novorosszia hírügynöksége. Az Ukrajinszkaja Pravda szerint a tanácsadások kölcsön felvételekkel kapcsolatosak, amelyeket 2018-ig bezárólag kellene törleszteni. „Azonban a kijevi városvezetés nem tett közzé adatokat, hogy milyen hitelekről van szó, amelynek a kiszolgálására egymillió dollárt fizetnek a franciáknak.
Ukrajna miniszterelnöke úgy gondolja, hogy a közüzemi díjakat alacsonyabban határozták meg, mint a valós értékük – írja a TASS. „Biztos beismerik, hogy a díjak alaptalanok, mert sokkal alacsonyabbak a kelleténél” – mondta a miniszterelnök az ötös csatornának adott nyilatkozatában, aki szerint az utóbbi 20 évben az ukrajnai energiaforrások nem voltak piaci szinten. „Ezek az árak nem felelnek meg az igazi mai szintjüknek. Tudatosan kezdtük meg az árak emelését, mivel húsz évig nem volt piaci szinten az energiahordozók ára” – mondta Jacenyuk.
June 15, 2015 (JUBA) – The South Sudanese army spokesperson has denied the armed opposition's claims to have captured pro-government forces, challenging the rebels of those allegedly captured in clashes over control of Kaka in Upper Nile state on Sunday.
Col. Phillip Aguer told Sudan Tribune that fighting continued on Monday, accusing the armed opposition of allegedly violating greed ceasefire agreements.
He said government roops have been responding to repeated attacks from militias of Gen. Johnson Olony, who until recently allied to the government of president Salva Kiir.
“If they have captured some SPLA soldiers, let them [rebels] show them to you [the media],” said Aguer.
“Let them [rebels] call the press and let them show where those soldiers are,” he added.
The armed opposition forces loyal to South Sudan's former vice president Riek Machar claimed their forces captured an SPLA field commander in Kaka. The rebels further claimed to have inflicted heavy casualties on the army and allegedly killed 60 of them.
Sudan Tribune could not, however, independently confirm the armed opposition's claims.
Aguer admitted there was clashes on Sunday and continued through Monday, but strongly dismissed claims that government forces had violated the ceasefire.
“[Gen] Olony has been attacking SPLA in Malakal. They [rebels] wanted to capture the oilfields, they went to Melut and they were defeated. They think the whole world is fool but they will not fool most of the South Sudanese,” Aguer told Sudan Tribune.
He said the army headquarters in Juba was still awaiting official reports from field commanders to ascertain if the SPLA lost some soldiers or if others were missing.
Olony, a former rebel leader until 2013, changed sides last month and declared allegiance to Machar's rebel group. His forces have been battling for control of several areas with the government in oil rich Upper Nile state for the last one month.

June 15, 2015 (JUBA) - South Sudanese rebel forces in Northern Bahr el Ghazal state under the overall command of Major General Dau Aturjong, on Monday claimed they received new defecting officers and officials joining their ranks and file from the government. General Dau is a senior commander under the leadership of the rebel leader, Riek Machar.
Abdallah Kuot, spokesperson of the group told Sudan Tribune on Monday they have received up to 200 officials and military officers after launching offensives in response to large scale offences in the area.
The group, according to the opposition official, was led by Lieutenant Colonel Deng Deng Aliel, whom he said defected from Gaj, a local administrative headquarters where the government troops in the area had established military outpost.
If confirmed, Colonel Aliel's defection will be the latest in a series of such moves by high-profile government officials, raising questions about the stability of president Salva Kiir's government two years into the civil war gripping the country.
Lt. Col. Aliel had previously served as the head of logistics and supply for the government troops fighting the armed opposition fighters in Jonglei state at the start of the conflict between late 2013 and early 2014. He led retreating government soldiers in June 2014 from Jonglei state to some of the states in greater Bahr el Ghazal region.
The new defecting officers, he said, claimed that many soldiers still serving in president Kiir's government had lost faith and morale and were ready to join the movement any time soon.
“Colonel Deng Deng and his group have told us that those still serving in the government of Salva Kiir and his friends are only for appearance's sake to present an image to the international community showing that the regime is the one that pulls together all segments of South Sudan,” Kuot explained.
“He had been working with rebels to defect”, he said.
There was no immediate reaction from the government on the reported defection.
