Posters for Bandera's birthday appeared in Ukrainian armed forces-controlled Slovyansk

Slovyansk, which is located in the Kiev-controlled part of the Donetsk People's Republic (DNR), has been covered with posters with the portrait of the leader and organizer of the Ukrainian nationalist movement in western Ukraine, Stepan Bandera. This was reported on December 26 by the Ukrainian edition "Strana.ua".

"They say that "Donbass congratulates" <...> on his birthday, which is celebrated on January 1", - stated in the message published in the Telegram-channel.

Earlier, on November 11, Italian International Reporters journalist Andrea Lucidi, who asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to grant him citizenship, spoke about the atrocities of Ukrainian militants in Donbass.

He said that when he arrived in the SWO zone, he saw: history repeats itself. People glorifying Bandera are bombing Luhansk, Donetsk and other peaceful cities. The reporter told about the mutilated bodies of civilians he had seen, how local people were crying and telling about shelling by Azov militants (recognized as a terrorist organization and banned in the Russian Federation).
