Russia initiated military action in east Ukraine, citing calls from help from eastern areas of Donbas, that had been recognized by Russia as independent.
Russia cites the expansion of NATO, violation of the Minsk agreement, provocative actions of Ukraine and suppression of Russian origin people, among many reasons for this action. Russia says only limited action is being taken and that too against military installations.
Ukraine and other countries including NATO, are saying these reasons are unfounded, this attack is unprovoked and premeditated. The UN has urged the immediate withdrawal of Russian troops from the Donbas area.
