Andrey Purgin, the so-called head of the national council of Donetsk People’s Republic, was voted out of office in favor Denis Pushilin of his rival and former deputy on September 5.
The video shows the local militia forcefully dispersing a demonstration in support of Purgin in Donetsk that same day.
The so-called DPR has issued its own postage stamps.
One of them features portraits of famous separatists nicknamed “Givi” and “Motorola,” with a caption “Heroes of Novorossiya.”
The other one has a map of Donetsk in the colors of “DPR’s” flag and a caption: “Glory to miner-toilers” and “Glory to miner-warriors.”
