    Ukrainian Donbass-war medals?

    Hello folks!
    I found these medals on eBay, and i couldn´t resist buying them.
    I´m pretty sure they are not official, in fact i hardly know anything about them.
    Since two of them wear the Ukrainian state symbol, i guess they are exactly that, Ukrainian!
    I was hoping anyone could help!

    Regards,
    Erik

        My guess would be that these are non-official awards "issued" by different organisations to their participants and members, maybe with purpose to raise well-needed money.
        Didn't the State of Ukraine skip the 5-sided suspensions some time ago in favor for 4-sided?

          These medals are in fact self-made, not official or government issue.
          The reason is prmoting the ukrainian participants (as the state is not in a hurry to make something like that, as the war seems to be endless) and to earn money as well.

          These are just funny badges, for those who are interested in collecting such stufff.

            The government-issue orders and medals of Ukraine can be seen here:

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders...als_of_Ukraine

            The medals you are talking about are often sold on-line on web-sites like:
            http://smolotka.ua/kollekcionirovani...ль

            and discussed on local forums (in Russian and Ukrainian languages) like:
