Dmitri Kovalevich is the special correspondent in Ukraine for Al Mayadeen English. He writes monthly situation reports as well as occasional special reports, including the following.
In February and March 2014, Russia invaded and subsequently annexed the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine. This event took place in the relative power vacuum on the immediate aftermath of the Revolution of Dignity and was the beginning act of the wider Russo-Ukrainian War.

I assume you didn’t read the second one, about your claim over the snipers. Go back and read again. And who started the Donbas war?
Katchanovski is known for his pro-Russian bias and his work isn’t accepted by mainstream scholars.
Mostly Russian “vacationers”.
