Lugansk Information Center editor Sergey Meshkovoy, told RIA Novosti on Friday that his channel was deleted"without any notifications or warnings," saying"it was not clear why."

Amid fears of an invasion by Russian troops by the border with Ukraine, Moscow-backed separatists in Ukraine make frequent claims that Kyiv is the aggressor in the Donbass, which has led to calls for Moscow to intervene.
