It is highly probable that Kyiv will embark on a combat operation in Donbas, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday, TASS reported.

"The attention of our interlocutors is drawn in every possible way to this dangerous concentration [of the Ukrainian troops at the engagement line in Donbas] and the attention of our interlocutors is drawn to the fact that a military operation and an attempt to resolve problems with the use of force in the southeast [of Ukraine] are quite real. This probability is high and real and, unfortunately, all of us and the entire world were witnesses when Kyiv unleashed a military operation in Donbas, that is, it started a civil war in the country," the Kremlin spokesman said.

Peskov also said that despite weeks of intensive international talks on de-escalation in Ukraine, the degree of tension between Kyiv and Moscow has not diminished. "The high level of danger [of Ukraine attacking the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics] persists," the Kremlin press secretary said, adding that this probability was not subsiding.
