BREAKING NEWS?
I suppose one would first have to give a fig about the Kiev tire burners.
This is just more proof that Putin loves his thug powers and wants to throw his weight around and create ever-more refugees and funerals.
Are you surprised? I read NATO was giving Ukraine weapons a while ago.
Perhaps you should at least care about Russian-speaking eastern Ukrainian Christians who want to be Ukrainian and are being murdered by imported Russian criminals. These imported thugs are given license for looting and even rape and murder by Putin. My own extended family members are suffering in the Lugansk region.

Makes no sense. Crimea is a long way from the fighting, Russia would have to deploy through Ukraine territory and stuff has to be sent to Crimea via boat.
Exactly. The route defies geography.
It's akin to Delaware shipping arms to New Jersey via Long Island.

The Ukrainians could be in for a world of hurt.
Crimea's been sending weapons to Ukraine since very early on....don't you love how everything is always Russia?
BTW I bet they'll be blaming Russia for the Ebola breakout too.
It's become so ridiculous now they've put up twitter accounts so you can blame Putin for your shoelaces breaking....you're mother yelling at you...etc.etc.! Ha!
Makes no sense. Crimea is a long way from the fighting, Russia would have to deploy through Ukraine territory and stuff has to be sent to Crimea via boat.
Actually, it makes total sense. Any people or war material from Crimea fits into the “civil war” fairy tale Putinists are busy spinning. There are already reports of Crimean security units at the MH17 crash site. There is no reason weapons from Crimea have to be headed to Luhansk. Putin intends to reek havoc across all of Ukraine. Just in the last few days there have been terrorist assassinations of Ukrainian mayors. The battlefield is all Ukraine at this point.
My own extended family members are suffering in the Lugansk region.
It’s sad that some seem to see this as an armchair parlor game to debate around. Real people are dying every day in Ukraine. Over 1000 deaths since Russians like Girkin arrived in Donbas and started killing. This mess won’t end until Russian nationals stop killing and leave Ukraine.
Of course, and where did you read it? Russian media, and you never cease sharing misinformation on this forum without any evidence.
Crimea IS part of Russia, at least since March or so. That's a really stupid statement, even for you.
