A Russian armored car has been photographed in Luhansk.
A A photograph showing a Russian BMP-97 armored car – a type of vehicle used only by the Russian armed forces – has been shown by the Bellingcat investigation group to have almost certainly been taken in Luhansk.

Of particular interest were BPM-97 mine-resistant, ambush protected (MRAP) vehicles that feature briefly in the video.


These Russian vehicles are not used by the Ukrainian military, and their presence inside Ukraine would be compelling evidence Russia has sent military vehicles into Ukraine. However, it has been impossible to find the position this video was filmed, so it has not been possible to confirm this was filmed inside Ukraine.

Yesterday a new image of a BPM-97 reportedly inside Ukraine was posted online by various sources.

All the roads are blocked in the Crimea "Right Sector"! And machines Kherson vegetables and fruits do not miss! And dealers in the wholesale market in the village of digging, using the situation, accept agricultural products for next to nothing: people in a panic!

The head of the village council, Alexander Foroschuk Gladkovsovskogo instead that would reach out to people and help some advice, or just to support their constituents, he hid himself from them.
People's indignation knew no bounds, especially emotionally, and bitterly complained about the life selchanka Lyudmila Kalita: "Until when above us ordinary people will scoff? With these calloused hands we make all the! After all, in our village there is no work: only survives due to the crop grown! So now we can not sell it even at the lowest price! Why do we live? What to wear, shoe, teach your children and grandchildren? Every election promise to hold the village of gas, and things are out there! I want one thing: to let any of the politicians whom we choose to come to our village, help us and will interpret why our fruits and vegetables are not allowed in the Crimea? What legally blocked our "way of life"? "Eugene Garden as he returned from the army in 1996 to his native village Gladkovka and took up farming.
"What my family and I just do not planted! Even the grapes, while it is not impaired! Now I have 5 greenhouses with cucumbers, small field with Chinese cabbage. But the trouble is that fertilizer, fuel and seeds, film - I buy taken off the price of the dollar, and now take my cucumbers - for mere pennies: 40, 60, and the ruble - is this happiness! Think for yourself: to start the season - I need at least a hundred thousand hryvnia! Fertilizer bag weighing 25 kg - worth 1,200 hryvnia, one roll of film costs 2000 hryvnia, a ton of coal - 4,000 hryvnia, the car of wood - 6000, one packet of seeds - 800 hryvnia. And I need 10 tons of coal, and it is 40 thousand hryvnia, five trucks of firewood - is 20 thousand hryvnia. Now I'm even in Kopan is not profitable to go: to take a ton of cucumbers, it is necessary to pay 200 hryvnia for petrol, but for cucumbers, I get 400 hryvnia, minus 200 for one ton I earn only 200 hryvnia !!!
It's not even funny! Try to work in forty-degree heat in the greenhouse! We in this season even thermometers in greenhouses burst - was so hot! I'm with my wife at 4 am - in a greenhouse, ate lunch, and again in the greenhouse until the night! One summer my wife even lost consciousness from such heat! And now to give everything for nothing? All posters write, Crimea - it is Ukraine, we believe that Krymchaks - our Ukrainian brothers! And they themselves are now to not let anyone. Crimeans without fruits and vegetables will not go, they bring all of Turkey. But we - the Ukrainian patriots, so hard work grow a rich harvest, will remain with nothing! Last year at this time I had been, and wood and coal (gas in the village still do not have). And now only the children to school barely raised! "- Complains Eugene Garden.
"And my so big, juicy strawberries at the normal price, too, no one needs! But I have under every bush - drip irrigation, blackberries, all tied up, raspberries - too! Not a weed in the fields! I can safely assure you: I have the best strawberries in the field! And I say now, "sold in Europe!" But there are all markets for a long time divided, one of Poland strawberries supplies almost all of Europe! And to establish other markets takes time. The supermarkets also take not profitable: besides, they do not pay the money immediately, but after two or three weeks, so still warn that half of the goods will be written off as the **** up! And embedded in the price of goods percentage of write-offs allegedly not guess! That's how we live! You look at the field: melons do not even clean - is not profitable, and this situation with vegetables and fruits throughout the area! "- Complains a farmer Igor Zhdanyuk.
How the situation will be resolved with the road to the Crimea - is not known. But if it is not accepted some compromise, the consequences can be the most radical.
