All of them were contract soldiers of the 18th motorized rifle brigade. Six privates, junior and major\u00a0sergeants and the group commander. &#8220;The examination was done, death of the servicemen is confirmed, but the circumstances or reasons of the incident were not disclosed&#8221;, &#8211; says Sergei Krivenko. &#8211; &#8220;Even the criminal cases were not open. That was weird, of course.&#8221;<\/span>\u00a0According to Krivenko, all the died soldiers got &#8216;killed in the line of duty&#8217; status. Their relatives got 5 million rubles &#8211; 3 million of insurance and 2 from the Ministry of Defense. &#8220;It is possible they died not on the polygon but somewhere else.

Now it is\u00a0ascertained that the military equipment was unloaded in Rostov Oblast, as we predicted before.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nAccording to the preliminary estimates, the forces deployed from the Russian 7th occupation military base\u00a0make a full-size\u00a0battalion tactical group. It contains: BTR-82 battalion, T-90 tank company, mixed \u2018Akatsia\u2019 and \u2018Grad\u2019 artillery division, reconnaissance company and other supply units.\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZT8rb22SjUc?rel=0\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>\r\n\r\n<strong>This battalion tactical group is sent to the Ukrainian border for the \"scheduled rotation\" or for enforcement of the Russian troops.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nDuring the final\u00a0reconnaissance we were provided with verbal information and photo\/video evidence, according to which the Russian echelons with manpower and means\u00a0seen near Sochi a couple of days ago were unloaded in Rostov Oblast.\r\n\r\nAccording to insiders, the last echelon which had\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/ZT8rb22SjUc\">T-90 tanks, 2S3 \u2018Akatsiya\u2019 self-propelled guns and other units on its platforms<\/a> (noticed in Sochi on September 19), was unloaded on Persianovka station (Oktyabrsky raion, Rostov Oblast) on September 21. The station is located near Kuzminsky\u00a0polygon and one of the Russian army base camps.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/12043860_862847023828545_1148878622_o.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-12948\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/12043860_862847023828545_1148878622_o.jpg\" alt=\"12043860_862847023828545_1148878622_o\" width=\"900\" height=\"591\" \/><\/a>\r\n<blockquote>It is noteworthy that Kuzminsky polygon is the one where fires and explosions of ammunition and self-propelled guns repeatedly happen. Anomalously high number of\u00a0emergency events without further investigations attracts interest of journalists. In particular, in the end of April Gazetu.ru published an article named \"<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gazeta.ru\/social\/2015\/04\/28\/6659597.shtml\">There are explosions, but not investigations. Numerous emergencies on Kuzminsky polygon in Rostov Oblast - experts raise questions<\/a>\"<\/strong> (in Russian).\r\n\r\nExtract:\r\n<em><span class=\"idea\">\"2 more incidents happened on August 9 and 11 on the same [Kuzminsky] poligon where already 9 our soldiers (scouts) have died. All of them were contract soldiers of the 18th motorized rifle brigade. Six privates, junior and major\u00a0sergeants and the group commander. \"The examination was done, death of the servicemen is confirmed, but the circumstances or reasons of the incident were not disclosed\", - says Sergei Krivenko. - \"Even the criminal cases were not open. That was weird, of course.\"<\/span>\u00a0According to Krivenko, all the died soldiers got 'killed in the line of duty' status. Their relatives got 5 million rubles - 3 million of insurance and 2 from the Ministry of Defense. \"It is possible they died not on the polygon but somewhere else. The relatives (not all of them) strive for opening the criminal cases and appropriate investigations\".<\/em><\/blockquote>\r\nAs for the equipment movement itself, another video clip named \"<a href=\"https:\/\/streamable.com\/innl\" target=\"_blank\">Russian military transport in Rostov 19.09.2015<\/a>\" was found in the Internet.
