The uniqueness of the footage provided by residents of Makiivka is that this is the first case when not individual vehicles, but the entire system, was spotted in Donbas. The system consists of a 1L259 radar station on MT-LBU chassis, a maintenance vehicle (MTO, 1I30) mounted on a Ural-43203 truck, the ED30-T230P-1 RPM1 power station on a 2-PN-2 trailer, as well as autonomous orientation and topographic surveying systems.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/3.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The publication of this footage became a powerful informational occasion, it was widely shown in the media and shared on social networks. It is noteworthy that many Russians commented on the footage and were very outraged by the fact that local residents of the occupied territories of Donbas transmit data on the movement of Russian equipment.<\/p>\n<h2>FINDINGS<\/h2>\n<p>Russia continues to supply weapons and use its latest military equipment in the occupied Donbas. This is evidenced not only by photo evidence from the social media accounts of Russian militants and by the OSCE SMM reports, but also by photos and videos that local residents hand over to Ukrainian volunteers. InformNapalm volunteers are very grateful to the locals of the occupied Makiivka for contacting us and providing important video evidence of Russian military aggression against Ukraine. Your photos and videos bring Russian soldiers and officers closer to the dock at the international tribunal.<\/p>\n<p>United we stand. Ukraine will prevail.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8997 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"171\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Distribution and reprint with reference to the source are welcome!

However, it has been made public for the first time only now and in an abridged version. The InformNapalm community has a full version of the video at its disposal, but the editorial team decided to redact it before publication to protect the source. The video shows the Russian TORN system vehicles drive through Makiivka on Heroyiv Stalingrada Street in the direction of Manuilsky Street (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/%D1%83%D0%BB.+%D0%93%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B5%D0%B2+%D0%A1%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B3%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%B0,+%D0%9C%D0%B0%D0%BA%D0%B5%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%BA%D0%B0,+%D0%94%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%B5%D1%86%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F+%D0%BE%D0%B1%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8C,+86100\/@48.0719114,37.8990013,571m\/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x40e08f1596a5204d:0xdd28cde53a9c4be2!8m2!3d48.0715407!4d37.9008174\">Google map<\/a>).\r\n\r\nTo compare the elements of the system, we used on the left a photo from our previous features about the TORN system, and on the right - a still-frame image from the video.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/ru2.jpg\" \/>\r\n\r\nIt is worth mentioning that that on February 10, 2019, <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/newest-russian-torn-radio-intelligence-system-was-spotted-again-in-occupied-donbas\/\">the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission<\/a> also reported that the latest Russian TORN signals intelligence system on the KAMAZ truck chassis was spotted near an apartment building in Novogrygoriivka.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1.jpg\" \/>\r\n\r\nAnd in July 2019, a video appeared of a Ukrainian Armed Forces unit destroying a TORN vehicle near the village of Maiorove, Donetsk Oblast on June 29, 2019.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/ukrainian-army-destroyed-two-newest-russian-ew-stations-in-donbas-video-fact-cheking\/\">InformNapalm volunteers fact-checked<\/a> the information on the destruction of the system and determined the exact coordinates of the fire engagement: 47\u00b029\u201950.2\u2033N 37\u00b058\u201931.6\u2033E.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2.jpg\" \/>\r\n\r\nLet us recall that in July 2019, residents of the occupied Donbas also provided InformNapalm volunteers with <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/47008-zhiteli-okkupirovannogo-donbassa-pre\/\">unique photos of the Russian system 1L259 Zoopark-1<\/a>. The uniqueness of the footage provided by residents of Makiivka is that this is the first case when not individual vehicles, but the entire system, was spotted in Donbas. The system consists of a 1L259 radar station on MT-LBU chassis, a maintenance vehicle (MTO, 1I30) mounted on a Ural-43203 truck, the ED30-T230P-1 RPM1 power station on a 2-PN-2 trailer, as well as autonomous orientation and topographic surveying systems.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/3.jpg\" \/>\r\n\r\nThe publication of this footage became a powerful informational occasion, it was widely shown in the media and shared on social networks. It is noteworthy that many Russians commented on the footage and were very outraged by the fact that local residents of the occupied territories of Donbas transmit data on the movement of Russian equipment.\r\n<h2>FINDINGS<\/h2>\r\nRussia continues to supply weapons and use its latest military equipment in the occupied Donbas. This is evidenced not only by photo evidence from the social media accounts of Russian militants and by the OSCE SMM reports, but also by photos and videos that local residents hand over to Ukrainian volunteers. InformNapalm volunteers are very grateful to the locals of the occupied Makiivka for contacting us and providing important video evidence of Russian military aggression against Ukraine. Your photos and videos bring Russian soldiers and officers closer to the dock at the international tribunal.\r\n\r\nUnited we stand. Ukraine will prevail.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\"><img class=\"wp-image-8997 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"171\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Distribution and reprint with reference to the source are welcome!
