At this moment the unit undergoes\u00a0the process of 'pre-assignment adaptation' there. In other words, the Russian servicemen get rid of all standard stuff and get accustomed to the role of 'Novorossiya' militants giving themselves a battle seasoned look.\r\n\r\nAccording to the same data, the\u00a0unit transferred to the Ukrainian border consists only of contract soldiers\u00a0with quite some battle experience earned in North Caucasus; all of them are 'volunteers' who agreed to come to Donbas hoping to get some extra profit (bonuses for being 'in field', for participating in combats, etc). This is going to\u00a0be not the first trip to Ukraine for some of those servicemen. It is also known that before arrival to Rostov Oblast, this detachment had had combat and organizational trainings in the 'Daryal' mountain\u00a0camp in the Northern Ossetia (the 54th intelligence training center).\r\n\r\nWe'd like to remind you that this is not the first 'Ukrainian assignment'\u00a0of the 8th brigade to\u00a0Donbas, please check out the\u00a0related topics:\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/the-russian-8th-brigade-s-servicemen-return-from-donbas-as-cargo-200-or-disabled\/\">The Russian 8th Brigade\u2019s Servicemen Return From Donbas as Cargo \u2018200\u2019 or Disabled<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/the-8th-mountain-motorized-rifle-brigade-in-ukraine\/\">The 8th Mountain Motorized Rifle Brigade in Ukraine<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/the-russian-8th-motorized-rifle-brigade-as-part-of-the-people-s-militia-of-lnr\/\">The Russian 8th Motorized Rifle Brigade as Part of the \u201cPeople\u2019s Militia\u201d of LPR<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/2037-razvedpodrazdelenye-8-j-msbr-gornoj-na-granytse-s-ukraynoj\" target=\"_blank\">8th Brigade's Recon Unit at the Border with Ukraine<\/a>\u00a0(in Russian)<\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/2568-show-must-go-yly-zhe-predvarytelnye-lasky\" target=\"_blank\">'Show Must Go On' or 'the Foreplay'<\/a> (in Russian)<\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/3723-medal-za-otvagu\" target=\"_blank\">Medal 'For the Courage'<\/a> (in Russian)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/15429-rossyya-svezhye-syly\">Original article<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/irakli.komaxidze\" target=\"_blank\">Irakli Komakhidze<\/a>, translated by Stepan Grishin<\/em>","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6335","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\/104"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6335"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6335\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6343,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6335\/revisions\/6343"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6336"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6335"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6335"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6335"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
