The column of Russian trucks, allegedly carrying humanitarian aid to Donbas, has split into two, with one of them heading for Donetsk. Eyewitnesses saw soldiers and weaponry in this column, Yevhen Marchuk, ex-premier and defense minister, wrote in Facebook a couple of hours ago Aug. 13.

The column with soldiers may try to enter Ukraine via Russia-controlled border checkpoints, Marchuk writes.

The other part, presumably with humanitarian aid, is heading for Rostov.

WE expect the trucks to be accompanied by nuns with pea-shooters?

If there are Russian solders in the trucks ,you should be able to smell them long before you see them

Ukrainian State-controlled TV said it, so it must be true, right.

soldiers need to protect the food and supplies from gangsters—we could not send in an un-armed convoy into a war zone. the Ukranians should not bother them-—or the next convoy will be made up of the Red Army and T-97 tanks.

Nonsense. Red Cross convoys are never armed.

Russia needs to stay the f**k out of Ukraine.

Shifting Boxes...

If you watched the videos of the loadings of some of these trucks, they are loaded UPS-Style, not palletized.

There is a video or photo so far? Every smartphone has a quality camera these days, there are thousands of alleged witnesses of Russian troops crossing the border, shelling civilians etc, yet not a single picture so far.

“there are thousands of alleged witnesses of Russian troops crossing the border, shelling civilians etc, yet not a single picture so far.”

That is yet another false statement from you. A Russian column reported to include 142 units crossed from Russia into the Ukraine about 7 hours ago.

A mobile photograph of another military column/convoy near Rostov.

The Russians timed the arrival of these convoys and armored columns to cross the Ukraine border and penetrate the Ukrainian territory in relief of the Russian terrorist insurgents under the cover of darkness. It is difficult and risky for civilians to photograph these movements in the dark.

Ah, Twitter. Must be a solid evidence. Not!

Not to mention your first link is not supported by any photo.

Second link is backed by the photo showing a movement of APC in Rostov. Last time I’ve check Rostov was still a Russian city.

Is that your evidence?

“Ah, Twitter. Must be a solid evidence. Not!”

You asked for the mobile phone photos, which commonly are sent by Twitter or Facebook, so that is what you got.

“Not to mention your first link is not supported by any photo.”

That is true as far as it goes in that instance, but you deceptively omitted the eyewitness testimonies.

“Second link is backed by the photo showing a movement of APC in Rostov. Last time I’ve check Rostov was still a Russian city.”

True, but the comment claiming no pictures included within Russia as well as outside Russia. Tomorrow we may see these same military vehicles pushing their way through the Ukraine with another fairy tale cover story, so it is worthwhile to observe the details now.

“Is that your evidence?”

People have been posting photos of the Russian movements inside Russia for weeks. In response, Putin and Russia are now making it illegal in Russia to have an anonymous WiFi port available for Russian civilians and soldiers to post these photos on the social media. Inside the Ukraine, the Russian special service military forces have been directing the Russian terrorist mercenaries to destroy much of the mobile telephone networks to disable the ability of the Ukrainians to report the deployments and movements of the Russian military forces in the Ukraine. This would also account for the lack of the very kind of mobile cellphone photographs falsely assumed to be coming from sources whose cellphone services have been deliberately disabled by the Russians in the Ukraine.

Hmm, so no evidence of Russian troops in Ukraine due to Russian actions to destroy communication networks? Ok. What about indiscriminate bombing of civilians by Ukrainian forces? What makes these pictures and videos so special and eligible to pass through destroyed communications?
BTW, if movements of Russian equipment in Russia is an evidence of it’s infiltration into Ukraine, is movement of Egyptian equipment in Egypt means a war on Saudi Arabia, or maybe a US tank in Texas means war on Mexico?
Is it how you are reading evidence?

Of course it is not, and the strawman arguments you are posing are as contemptible as they are false and infantile. Why don’t you go waste someone else’s time with your shameful frauds. Aren’t you supposed to be in Sevastopol to kiss Putin’s hand or something?
