A Donetsk court has sentenced three foreign mercenaries to death, after they pleaded guilty to charges of preparing a coup in Donbass. The foreigners had been glorified in the Western media for fighting for Ukraine. At least 13 people are killed in the latest Ukrainian shelling of the Lugansk Republic, hitting vital infrastructure and civilian homes. A top Russian arms control official says Western weapons supplies to Ukraine are ending up in the hands of terrorists, through the black market and could end up being used against the very countries that sent them.
