The InformNapalm community continues the series of investigations\u00a0in which we try to identify the Russian weaponry and equipment that were used in combat actions in Ukraine between\u00a02014-2015. The main sources of the data are the Russian soldiers themselves. In some cases, information is leaked by civilians who got\u00a0in the thick of actions. They cannot refrain from taking a picture in front of a military equipment without boasting. The following article contains a photo set which is ‘presented to us’ by the employees of the Russian\u00a0military industrial sector. The pictures prove that the Russian 200th brigade took part in combats in Donbas\u00a0in 2014.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

A profile of Mikhail Boyurov<\/strong><\/a> was found in VKontakte social network – on December 10, 2015, he uploaded a set of pictures that were taken in a period between August and September of 2014, during his ‘Ukrainian assignment’. On the basis of Boyurov’s\u00a0photos, it can be concluded that he (together with\u00a0other specialists from the Federal State Unitary Enterprise ‘775th artillery repair\u00a0plant’) was sent to the conflict zone to provide repair and preventive maintenance of military equipment and weapons on the site.<\/p>\n
