Ukrainian Civil War (Operation Foxley)

The Ukrainian Civil War, also called the Ukrainian Revolution or Second Ukrainian War of Independence, was a separatist uprising in the Ukraine SSR region in August 2018 that lasted until October of the same year. This conflict involved some countries of the CCS military alliance, some countries in the Middle East, such as Persia and the only European country, Poland. However, the Soviet Union and its allies overcame the separatists and created a new Soviet Socialist Republic, the Novorossiya SSR.

This is not the first time that Ukraine has sought its independence from the Soviet Union. The first time that Ukraine and the USSR met was in 1917, in the so-called Ukrainian War of Independence, or First Ukrainian War of Independence, which consisted of implanting the People's Republic of Ukraine, which was absorbed by the USSR and transformed into Ukraine SSR in 1922.

And in 2018, exactly 96 years later, another conflict began with the same purpose, to implant a Ukrainian Republic to end the communist regime and, obviously, to separate from the USSR. However, they failed again, even with allies by their side.

Background
As in 1917, Ukrainian separatists wanted to form their own nation for various reasons. One of them, of course, is their ethnic differences and because of the war itself that was going on at the time. Many ethnic Ukrainian soldiers and officers defected during the war, and in the south, Ukrainian anarchists disarmed several Ukrainian soldiers and officers. And in the east, there were frequent attacks by Bolshevik unions in the Donets industrial basin. However, the 2018 situation is different. Yes, they still want to separate because of ethnic differences, but also, by something much larger and more sensitive, the end of the communist regime in Ukraine, which for the Soviets, is considered an act of betrayal of the nation and the Communist party.
