You seems to suggest that all the previous fighting has been done by Ukrainians who resent the Kiev government, whilst most has been done by Russian forces operating inside Ukraine - including the shooting down of flight MH17 in 2014.

Kiev has been upping the ante since late January, just after Biden inauguration and has been moving equipment up close to contact areas. MSM has been ignoring it for weeks but it has been happening. Russia in response in the last week has started to move equipment to its borders.
People in Eastern Kiev rose up following Maidan overthrow of president and were then attacked by Kiev forces including neo Nazi paramilitaries.
Ukraine is not a member of NATO.
