35 minutes ago — they haven’t crossed in yet:
Raising the stakes in Ukraine’s conflict, a Russian aid convoy of more than 200 trucks pushed up to the border on Thursday but then stopped, provocatively poised to cross into rebel-held territory.
The Ukrainian government threatened to use all means available to block the convoy if the Red Cross was not allowed to inspect the cargo.
Such an inspection would ease concerns that Russia could use the aid shipment as cover for a military incursion in support of the separatists, who have come under growing pressure from government troops.
The United States has warned Russia that it needs to secure Ukraine’s permission for the convoy to enter.
What a silly headline, they’ve been doing this for months now.
Impossible. Putin said it was only relief supplies. Surely he wouldn’t lie.
Only God can help Ukraine now the Euro’s are utter wimps. The fields and streets are about to run with blood.
Russians are a curse upon the earth.
Most likely...
But this is DIFFERENT.
They are marked with Official Russian plates, and they didn’t care if Western Media saw it.
THAT marks a huge change.
