Special forces maybe. Russia's goal is not to take Kiev but to bring Yanukovych or his son or his grandson back to power in Kiev.

This was stated in the OSCE's daily report of the Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine for August 2:

"An armed man guarding the facility at one of the sites claimed that he and those present at the site were part of the 16th airborne brigade from Orenburg, Russian Federation. They did not wear identifying insignia."
