Russian Armoured Vehicles And Military Trucks Cross Border Into Ukraine -- The Telegraph
Exclusive: Telegraph witnesses Russian armoured vehicles and military trucks cross the border from Russia into Ukraine
A column of armoured vehicles and military trucks crossed the border from Russia into Ukraine on Thursday night, in the first confirmed sighting of such an incident by Western journalists.
A separate, larger convoy of around 270 Russian trucks, which Moscow claims is carrying aid, rumbled to a halt just short of the border on Thursday night, while in east Ukraine, shells hit the centre of rebel-held Donetsk for the first time.
The Telegraph witnessed a column of vehicles including both armoured personal carriers and soft-skinned lorries crossing into Ukraine at an obscure border crossing near the Russian town of Donetsk shortly before 10pm local time.

My Comment: It is too small for an invasion force. But it is an ominous development.

At home we say "never trust the russians"... why you ask, well they cant be trusted. Never...
This is what U.S meddling in the bear's backyard net's them. Doesn't surprise me if we see a massive invasion force. Russia has too many interests in Ukraine to see it slip towards U.S and eventually NATO. Victoria Nuland on behalf of the U.S should have never gave Ukraine 5 billion.
I concur, if the west dident get involved none of this would have happened
