After checking friend contacts of mentioned servicemen, we have also found their colleagues from the same company.

Moreover, Nikolay Belokolybenko is a Youtube star, he took part in a mentioned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=djzjNEOfAPQ\">video by Mir TV, shot in Vladikavkaz in 2014 and featuring Russian reconnaissance drone Orlan-10<\/a>.

Through examining of VK profiles of soldiers who are serving under contract: <a href=\"http:\/\/vk.com\/id70828234\">Ales Dzhumargaliev<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/vk.com\/ruslang13\">Ruslan Galimov<\/a>, this unit was identified as drones company of the 19th motorized rifle brigade from Vladikavkaz.\r\n\r\nVK photo galleries of these servicemen have pictures with a geographical location on the territory of Ukraine, namely: Amvrosyyivskyi Raion of Donetsk Oblast. Not only the personal information of the servicemen, but also pictures themselves confirm that this group of people is a part of a drone company. Pictures show KAMAZ truck with special modules and a few black plastic boxes.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"787\" height=\"671\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"784\" height=\"713\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/YASHIKI.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"896\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/KAMAZ__.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"949\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1-1-230x130.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"230\" height=\"130\" \/>\r\n\r\nThese boxes are signature evidence of the Russian dones. Compare them with boxes and other equipment on <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/djzjNEOfAPQ\">this video, shot in 2014 by Russian Mir TV company<\/a>.\r\n\r\nBy the way, this video shows public flight practice of the same drone unit from Vladikavkaz. After checking friend contacts of mentioned servicemen, we have also found their colleagues from the same company. A person named <i>Nikolay Dmitrievich Belokobylenko<\/i> happened to be the most curious and open to public, since he has 3 different VK profiles: <a href=\"https:\/\/vk.com\/id146791893\">https:\/\/vk.com\/id146791893<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/vk.com\/id279602335\">https:\/\/vk.com\/id279602335<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/vk.com\/id161164012\">https:\/\/vk.com\/id161164012<\/a>.\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3-3-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"913\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"910\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"796\" height=\"885\" \/>\r\n\r\nIt is enough to examine only one profile of Nikolay Belokobylenko in order to know about his whole career path: from compulsory military service in the 141st separate tank brigade (military unit No.64514, Republic of North Ossetia-Alania, Vladikavkaz) in 2008\u20142009 to the present contract service in the 19th separate motorized rifle battalion (military unit No.\u00a020634, Republic of North Ossetia-Alania, Vladikavkaz).\r\n\r\nThe fact that Belokolybenko has been serving in drones company since 2009 is confirmed by a picture taken in Kolomna (a town near Moscow), where he was trained in a Training center for specialists of drone aircraft complexes (military unit No. 20924). Moreover, Nikolay Belokolybenko is a Youtube star, he took part in a mentioned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=djzjNEOfAPQ\">video by Mir TV, shot in Vladikavkaz in 2014 and featuring Russian reconnaissance drone Orlan-10<\/a>. In it Nikolay was called a senior crew controller (see 1:45).\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/BELOKOBILENKO-640x360.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" \/>\r\n\r\nOver the last year <a href=\"https:\/\/vk.com\/id161164012\">Nikolay Belokobylenko<\/a> numerously visited Donbas during his missions. This is confirmed by pictures from Donbas Arena Stadium and Tsar cannon (known to all Donetsk residents) on the background.\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/CP.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"1045\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/DA.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"774\" height=\"837\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3-3-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"784\" height=\"684\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3-3-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"774\" height=\"573\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3-3-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"780\" height=\"611\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/3-3-81.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"559\" \/>\r\n\r\nDrone operators from 19th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade are usually present on pictures together with artillerists from the same brigade. This brings us to conclusion that their main task is to conduct reconnaissance of Ukrainian positions and objects of military significance to supply this information to their artillery. 19th Motorized Rifle Brigade is armed with self-propelled howitzers 2S19 Msta-S and 9\u041a51\u041c Tornado-G modernized multiple rocket launchers (modernized BM-21 Grad), which have modern guidance and control units and have longer destruction range comparing to their predecessors.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/8819-o-pohozhdenyyah-roty-bpla-19-j-motostrelkovoj-brygady-v-ukrayne\"><i>Original article<\/i><\/a><i> by Irakli Komakhidze and Krmvictory, translated by Maksym Sviezhentsev, edited by Gennadiy Kornev<\/i>","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4254","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4254"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4254\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4452,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4254\/revisions\/4452"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4722"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4254"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4254"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4254"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
