Summary (No less than 10 sentences for full credit)
Around April, the fighting and continued for many month. Luckily, Ukraine and
separatists leaders came to a deal that would stop the fighting and would free prisoners. This may
seem liked this end the whole war in general, sadly it did not. It put the war on hold. The main
source of this war is the battle for control of Donetsk airport, which is under Ukraines control.
Another event that sparked this war would be pro-Russian activists took control over government
buildings in certain towns and cities across the Donetsk and Lugansk region. This goes back to
the point where the Donetsk airport is a big thing. Pro-Russians have taken control over these
building into February which they raised Russian flags after Viktor Yanukovych. A lot of people
did not like this and potentially could have felt betrayed. As of right now, this is still going on. It
can sparked again at any moment. Hopefully, this will end.

This war that is happening right now is wrong. You have people have people scared for
their lives and have people fighting for what ground they control. As of right now, the war is on
hold. Sadly, as any given moment, it could continue its path of destruction. Ukraine is under a lot
of pressure and is basically like an enemy of war. There is one side that want them, then theres
another side that wants them. They need to stop this war and get Ukraine back on its track.
