Post by hammarö »

Russian cross the Ukrainan border with a Battalion BTG group equipped with BTR in Rostov area. At least 15 BTG in area.

Reported by Guardian etc. 20:28 this evening.

No aircraft visible.

Should at least be followed helicopters, in this case the VVS helicopter unit in Rostov-na-Don or the Border Troops helicopters.

Let us see how it seems on other border passings without journalists.

Yesterday reported of military vehicles from south into southern parts.

At least two Mi-8 visible with white truck transports, one of them with RF serials.

I am very surprised of the low number of Russian helicopters spotting since the conflict start.

There is several Russian spetsnaz troops in area, and several of them are reported in Ukraine. The pro Russians in Ukraine is former spetsnaz and vdv troops, residents in Ukraine. To short space for details, ie unit numbers.

They all need at least helicopter transports, or are they walking to and back from Russia.

The only visible flying is the wrecks of different types of UAV, and the result in picturestaken from the UAV.
