Russia actively relocates its military equipment to the administrative border between the Republic of Crimea and Ukraine. Plenty of evidence of the translocation of a large number of troops and armored vehicles in the districts of the towns of Armyansk and Dzhankoy appeared in the Internet.

A number of witnesses also recorded the relocation of columns of military equipment of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the districts of Odessa and Kherson regions. As reported, the marines’ units of the Ukrainian Navy and the artillery sections with volley fire systems are pulled together to the administrative border with Crimea. Sources in the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense said that all movements of the military equipment are carried out in the framework of previously planned military exercises.

The vice-President of the World Congress of Crimean Tatars, Lenur Islyamov, said that military exercises of the Russian contingent are apparently also carried out in the immediate vicinity of the administrative border.

According to witnesses, who are near the border crossing checkpoint Kalanchak, Russian helicopters fly at very low altitude along the border at the Crimean side.

As previously reported, Russia has suspended the Crimea’s border crossing by people and vehicles on August 7 for unknown reasons. After a few hours, the movement across the border was reopened.
