A year ago, Russia deployed significant amount of military personnel to the town of Klintsy in Bryansk Oblast, near the border with Ukraine and Belarus. InformNapalm volunteers conducted additional investigation and uncovered fresh facts about the formation of a new Russian division aimed at the West.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 144th<\/sup> Guards Motorized Rifle Division with its headquarters in Yelnya is formed on the basis of the 28thSeparate Motorized Rifle Brigade from Yekaterinburg, being assigned its number 61423. The 488th<\/sup> Motorized Rifle Regiment from Klintsy (military unit #12721) is going to be a part of the 144th<\/sup> Division from the West Military District. Some sources mention Klintsy as the site of the future deployment of the 182nd Motorized Rifle Regiment.<\/p>\n

David Batiashvili, an analyst in the field of international relations,\u00a0noted\u00a0that plans to create four new divisions along the Ukrainian border -the 150th Motorized Rifle Division in Rostov Oblast, the 10th Tank and 3rd Motorized Rifle Divisions in Voronezh Oblast and the 144th Motorized Rifle Division near Smolensk – are not defensive in nature.<\/p>\n

The modern period of their formation can be described as a calm before the storm.\u00a0In Russia the regrouping of troops is not completed, the electoral process is continuing in the EU, in which the Kremlin is actively trying to intervene, while the Russian Foreign Ministry is playing a game with the administration of the US president Donald Trump.\u00a0Moscow, despite sanctions, continues to demonstrate aggressive policy and expansion not only in Europe but also in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

In April last year, through the analysis of comments of Bryansk Oblast residents in social media, InformNapalm volunteers came across and first uncovered\u00a0plans<\/a>\u00a0for the transfer of the Russian 28th Motorized Rifle from Yekaterinburg to Klintsy.\u00a0In May 2016 redeployment was confirmed by the activity in social accounts of the Russian servicemen themselves.\u00a0Then we determined the place of temporary deployment of the military personnel newly arrived from the Urals (coordinates\u00a052.7780623, 32.2027034<\/a>).<\/p>\n

In August 2016, InformNapalm published<\/a> the\u00a0plan for the rebuilding of a military base\u00a0on the abandoned site, originally posted on the website of Russian public\u00a0procurement.<\/p>\n

The following work was planned in the military base:<\/p>\n

\u2013 remodeling of three old buildings to convert them into personnel barracks and construction of a new modular building, with a total capacity of\u00a01,900 personnel<\/strong>;<\/p>\n

\u2013 construction of the classrooms and cafeteria, renovation of the headquarters building;<\/p>\n

\u2013 construction of a base for military vehicles and equipment,\u00a0for 470 pieces, <\/strong>and other.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The servicemen spent the summer and autumn of 2016 in tents near the city.\u00a0It was not without accidents, when in September 2016 there was a\u00a0fire<\/a>\u00a0in the tent camp.<\/p>\n

The latest satellite images of the restored military base and nearby tent camps on the open access website\u00a0TerraServer<\/a>\u00a0are\u00a0dated\u00a0November<\/strong> 02, 2016<\/strong>. One can see the construction process, military equipment warehouses and the tents for personnel.<\/p>\n

Coordinates of the first camp are:\u00a052.7780623,32.2027034<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The second camp is located in the village of Zaimishche in the suburbs of Klintsy, its coordinates are:\u00a052.717814, 32.271997<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Coordinates of the restored military base are: 52.746666, 32.249475<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In November 2016, the transfer of servicemen had begun from the training center in Yelan and Mulino to Klintsy.\u00a0Then, the peculiar details of the life of servicemen came to light.\u00a0With the arrival of winter, they were placed in unheated buildings without normal living conditions.\u00a0Wives and mothers of servicemen shared the\u00a0details<\/a>:\u00a0lice and complete unsanitary conditions<\/em>. To fight pediculosis, the Russian servicemen had to take mattresses and bedding out to kill lice by freezing. The complaints of family members were confirmed with the photos posted by the servicemen.\u00a0The food was disgusting, and on arrival of the deputy defense minister Dmitry Bulgakov on February 8, 2017 to check the construction progress, the servicemen were simply taken out of sight<\/a>, to the training grounds.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the spring of 2017, the servicemen posted photos showing that they had moved into new buildings.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Many military experts say that the upcoming Russian military exercise Zapad-2017 involving, according to preliminary data, 13,000 troops deserve special attention. Lithuanian Defense Minister Raimundas Karoblis said<\/a> that its training scenario includes an armed conflict with NATO. On April 27, Estonia\u2019s Defense Minister Margus Tsahkna said <\/a>that Estonia and other NATO countries have intelligence on possible actions of Russia in Belarus. He stated that Russian troops may stay in Belarus after the completion of the exercises, and for them, \u201cit is a one-way ticket,\u201d<\/p>\n

Ukraine is already familiar with the concentration of temporary field camps along its eastern border. \u00a0Is Belarus ready to meet an uninvited neighbor?<\/p>\n
