It is noted that this soldier later admitted data on Kiev's plans to invade Donbass.
"Once again there is confirmation of the information that the Ukrainian command intends to resume the stage of hot hostilities and launch an offensive... The captured soldier also confirms our concerns about the Ukrainian side's plans to carry out a terrorist attack using toxic substances," - Mr. Bezsonsov said.
The representative of the Donetsk People's Republic added that the recently arrested person confessed that there is growing dissatisfaction with the current government of the country and especially dissatisfaction with President Poroshenko among the ranks of the Ukrainian army soldiers.
However, due to confidentiality requirements, the representative did not disclose the prisoner's identity or information about the unit to which he belonged.
In early January, the Donetsk People's Republic announced that Donbass militia had captured a Ukrainian security officer as part of a group of commandos attempting to infiltrate the territory of the self-proclaimed republic.
