War in Donbas After a commencement of hostilities in April 2014, Russian forces invaded the Donbas region of Ukraine in August of that year.[9][6] A report released by the Royal United Services Institute in March 2015 said that "the presence of large numbers of Russian troops on Ukrainian sovereign territory" became a "permanent feature" of the war following the invasion,[10] with regular Russian and Ukrainian forces coming into direct conflict at the Battle of Ilovaisk[11][12] and likely the Battle of Debaltseve.[13] Low-intensity fighting continued through 2022, despite the declaration of numerous ceasefires.
