What was the date when the\u00a0Russian\u00a0army units entered\u00a0Ukraine?<\/p>\n

These days, mainly due to politicians’ statements, people say that Russia invaded Ukraine on August, 24, 2014. Maybe indeed the regular Russian units started crossing the border and fighting against Ukrainian army that day… however the first Russian servicemen were noticed far before that.<\/strong><\/p>\n

‘Rain’ [Dozhd<\/em>]<\/a> website states that Armen Davoyan was one of the first officially fallen soldiers, his death emerged on July, 14, 2014.<\/p>\n

Davoyan served in a reconnaissance battalion of the 9th separate motorized rifle brigade, military unit No. 54046, Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

It seems that Russian recon groups\u00a0infiltrated Ukraine\u00a0on early stages of the war. They ensured the seamless capture of different objects and afterwards local militants took control of them.<\/p>\n

Also 6P29 VSS ‘Vintorez’<\/a> (suppressed sniper rifle\u00a0used by special forces units) started to appear in videos and photos on different ‘Novorossiya’ support forums at that period.<\/p>\n

The price of such rifle is about 10 thousands of dollars. Regular units and militants\u00a0use 6B1 SVD<\/a> sniper rifle with different modifications, and ‘Vintorez’\u00a0may be usually seen only in recon units. That is a pretty rare rifle\u00a0which cannot be bought in a \u00a0weapon shop. And definitely nobody takes it on vacation.<\/p>\n

Checking the\u00a0reconnaissance company from military unit No. 54046 leads us to 20 yo Sergei Kosarev<\/a> from Novokuznetsk (Kemerovo Oblast, Russia) and Sergei Yakushev<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One of them even specified the location – Luhansk. Such signs are placed on the Ukrainian side of the border – the\u00a0inscription is in Ukrainian.<\/p>\n

Recon group, ‘Vintorez’, Ukrainian side of the border. May, 3, 2014.<\/p>\n

Later, on June, 17, Yakushev for the first time uploads a photo with geotags: “Mayakovskogo ave., Donetsk, Ukraine”<\/p>\n

\"\u042f\u043a\u0443\u0448\u0433\u0435\u043e\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Conclusion: the Russian soldiers appeared in Ukraine far before August, 24 and Ilovaisk cauldron. Even the first officially killed soldiers happened in July. And the first recon\u00a0squads were noticed in April-May, 2014.<\/strong><\/p>\n
