KIEV, Ukraine Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said Friday that Ukrainian forces had attacked and destroyed part of a column of Russian military vehicles on Ukrainian territory, a step that, if confirmed, would represent a significant escalation of hostilities between Ukraine and Russia.
Poroshenko told British Prime Minister David Cameron that the majority of a column of Russian military vehicles had been destroyed by the Ukrainian artillery at night, his office said in a statement. The announcement came as NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Friday that the defense alliance had seen an incursion into Ukraine the previous night.

But at least the Ukrainian people are trying.
Here’s a sample
Potselui mene y sraka
Putey has misjudged the level of hatred the Ukranians have for Mother Russia. They are not going to go gently into the new empire. My brother in law has an adopted teen from Urkraine and he has talked about how much they hate the Russians.
Putin thinks all those people who were forced to learn Russian are Russians now and willing to die for him. He’s a fool, like Obama, and his supporters on FreeRepublic are like Obamarobots.
Almost forget
DERP DERP DERP NAZI
If the NATO or the poofters in London have evidence of a Russian military incursion, let them present it and stop pussyfooting around.

LOL.
Classic case of projection...
As always when the facts come out it is always the Russians who are found to be the ones lying. Ukrainians will fight for their independence or die trying just like we did.
How far will Putin go militarily and how many Russian agents are left in Ukraine undermining Ukraine govt, military and Intel?
“As always when the facts come out it is always the Russians who are found to be the ones lying.”
uhhh...
NO....
Kiev has said many whoppers, as well.
The one I really like is “We don’t shell civilians”
But you just ignore them, and call anyone that points them out a “Putin-lover”, or worse.
Putin is a mischief maker and an opportunist. He’s not much for the long hard slog and that’s what trying to annex the Ukraine will be. Putey is already trying to back out of the swamp but this convoy ambush is really making it difficult. He has really stepped in doody and he’s not sure how to get out of it.
I slept in today. I love waking-up in the morning and getting the latest Kremlin spin on FR.
There are many graphic scenes of innocent Ukrainian civilians being indiscriminately killed by their own government but they aren't for posting here.
No dummy...a classic case of reality. You should try it sometime.

“Putin is a mischief maker and an opportunist”
Absolutely...
And Obama handed him the opportunity of a lifetime when they supported the overthrow of the elected Ukraine Gov, giving him an excuse to recover Crimea. The Obamunists never considered how Putin might react to it, that much is very clear.
“Hes not much for the long hard slog and thats what trying to annex the Ukraine will be.”
IMO, He doesn’t want anything to do with swallowing Ukraine. It’s a basket case, both Socially and economically. If he wanted it, this would already have been over in a day.
He will take the Southeast if he can get it, most of Ukraine’s wealth is there, along with a significant percentage of Russia’s war industries. It also offers a land route for much of the South Stream Project, (that the Saudi’s and Obama are trying desperately to stop), making it much cheaper to build.
IMO, Ukraine will eventually balkanize along ethnic lines. Maybe sooner than we think.
“but this convoy ambush is really making it difficult”
As noted by CNN, and posted above, there is no proof to back up this claim by Kiev:

US says it cant confirm Ukrainian claims of disabling vehicles in a Russian military convoy inside Ukraine

LOL
Civil wars are terrible.
It’s Putins fault for supplying and controlling the “ separatists”.
Just like the blood on his hands for Chechnyia and Georgia.
