Speaking in Kiev, the capital, Col. Andriy Lysenko, a Ukrainian military spokesman, said 32 tanks, 16 howitzers and 30 trucks hauling ammunition and fighters had crossed into the Luhansk region from Russia. He presented no clear evidence to support the claim, nor did the wealth of social media outlets in eastern Ukraine display any footage of a tank convoy. The Kiev government frequently made such claims that could not be substantiated during intense fighting between Ukrainian government troops and separatists earlier this year. Neither NATO nor the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which is monitoring a cease-fire, could confirm the report.
The agreement to stop the fighting was reached at negotiations organized and led by Russia and held in Minsk, the capital of Belarus. It was reached at the same time that the US was pressing leaders of the NATO countries, at a meeting in Wales, to boost their military spending and to set up more offensive military positions in countries bordering Russia. The one thing that did not happen as a result of the cease-fire, and that in fact never even got addressed in the Minsk talks, was a withdrawal of Russian troops from eastern Ukraine.There was no withdrawal or even mention of those troops — said to number about 1000 by the US and the Kiev government — because there never were Russian troops invading Ukraine.
Usually when someone cries wolf it's because they want something, likely a scam or some kind of swindling going down. In this case Ukraine is crying wolf in order to have EU and US taxpayers front the bill for their expenses...gas, oil, oligarch party funds, Hunter Biden - Igor Kolomoisky benders, etc... For the main stream media, well they are in bed with the MIC (military industrial complex), so their payoff is more business manufacturing war.

" target="_blank">As we approach the one year anniversary of the "Euromaidan" protests, and eventual coup of President Yanukovych, one meme has dominated the Ukraine headlines ever since, the 'Russian military invasion of Ukraine.' Last week Ukraine's Military spokesman Col. Andriy Lysenko, accused Russia of sending tanks, troops and lot's of other stuff across the border into Ukraine, as reported by the NY Times:
