FROM RT:

The Kryminform news agency, citing an unnamed local police source, reports shooting came from a house under construction opposite the center and targeted Crimean self-defense units as well the military center itself.

“Earlier today self-defense units were informed that a group of armed men had been discovered in a partially inhabited building,” a source from the ministry said. “As they were taking measures to check, self-defense units came under fire. One man was killed, one wounded,” the source explained, adding that shooting came “in two directions from one spot”.

The Kryminform source claimed another man from the military center was wounded.

RT’s producer contacted staff inside the military center, who confirmed that the shooting did take place and came from a nearby house under construction. At the same time, the man had no information on the casualties.

Meanwhile, multiple reports that a Ukrainian serviceman died in the incident are unconfirmed by our crew at the scene.

So they snipped and killed a Ukrainian soldier and, just to be fair, shot a Crimean self-defense member?

I saw a report that said the Russians had caught one of the snipers and the other one was still on the run. If thats true, they’ll find out soon enough who was behind the shooting.

This does not look like an action of organized military forces. It looks like another agent provocateur trying to shoot at both sides of the conflict, hoping that they will attack each other. The same was seen in Kiev.
