During OSINT monitoring of Russian military servicemen and mercenaries in social media, we were able to identify a location of the Russian troops stationed on Ukraine’s border in the early Autumn 2014 when Russia tried to bring the “Peacekeeping Forces” with military equipment (with flags and ‘PC’ signs on it) to Ukraine. The Russian so-called “Peacekeeping Forces” were located near the Russian town of Donetsk, Rostov Oblast. Looking at the photos, we can say they were in a high state of readiness.
According to the last photos from the same account, in fact, Russian military has been staying at the same place and are conducting so-called “military exercises” actively.
