Watch As Russian Troops Fire Warning Shoots Against Ukrainian Soldiers In The Crimea
Amicable resolution between Russia and the Ukraine as the market seems to be suggesting, or not? Watch this clip of what happened just hours earlier at the Belbek air force base, in which Russian troops fired warning shots aat approaching Ukrainian soldiers and you decide.
From Euronews:
Russian forces fired warning shots in to the air as ranks of unarmed Ukrainian soldiers marched towards them at Belbek air base in Crimea on Tuesday (March 4).
Russian troops backed by armoured personnel carriers took over Belbek military airport near the port of Sevastopol last Friday (February 28). Russia's Black Sea fleet is based in Sevastopol.
On Tuesday a column of Ukrainian soldiers marched towards the Russian forces while chanting and carrying the Ukrainian flag. As they approached the line of armed Russian soldiers and military vehicles guarding the base, the Russian forces fired warning shots into the air and warned them not to approach any further.
Once the Ukrainian soldiers reached the line of Russian forces, the Ukrainian and Russian commanders spoke as armed Russian soldiers surrounded them. There were no incidents.
Luckily, this time there were no injuries and the Ukrainians retreated. What about next time?

Algos don't recognise humans
Bleep bloop.
They said they were just hunting grouse...
Well.....that seemed to go pretty well.
Were the Ukrainians singing Mickey Mouse (a la Full Metal Jacket) ?
Ukrainian soldiers were carrying Ukrainian yellow/blue flag and SOVIET RED FLAG. I don't know what's written on it, but it is an old Soviet Flag.
Looney
1 - BHO tells Putin he will have flexibilty after the election.
2 - ACA puts huge stress on the US economy.
3 - US backs a coup attempt in Ukraine.
4 - Putin sends in the troups.
5 - BHO puts sanctions in place, despite a warning from Putin that will result in a Russian default on Western debt.
6 - Dollar crashes, Western Banking system crashes. The scales are evened in a master move to global socialism. SDR becomes new global currency. US is brought down just as BHO and his ilk planned.
It is either this, or BHO is in over his head. Not sure which scares me more.
Sleep tight bitchez!
Pretty much everything is either scary or dangerous now.
I like the Russian on the left going all gangsta with his AK tilted to the side.
Also, I dont know how you would respect a guy wearing an oversized blue and yellow hat. Might as well wear clown shoes, too.
Yeah he looked twitchy.
Can you blame him, the Euro reporters were mostly French and British and Australian, the guy had great grandfather that stopped the charge of the light brigade.
Also what a freakin staged event, trying to get young men killed for a photo opportunity, just shows you how vile the scum in the west is trying to set up a massacre so that they can they broadcast all over the world. If i was the Russian guy I would of emptied my clips into the reporters.
Perhaps, but if you intend to mow down a crowd with an automatic weapon (particularly an AK)- you have more control if you're not simultaneously fighting the laws of physics as well as your adversaries.
Seems like a pretty reasonable/accurate analysis to me.
And almost as if on cue:

Well - we've been debating for 5 years as to how this would eventually play out... now we know.
I think they were singing Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky'...
Everbody join in...."It's a small world after all...it's a small world after all".....come on everybody sing it!
Those reporters are fucking idiots!
Any ideas the Russians were armed with AK-74s or AK-94 and what caliber do you think it was?
You can always go there and tell um how it should be done.
After you!
I'm not the one calling people fin idiots here, insane and unreasonable,yes. Butt fckin idiots, NO!
What are you willing to die for? Might want to ask yourself. Soon.
The purpose of life
is a life
with a purpose,
So I'd rather die for a cause
than live a life
that is worthless.
Not sure. I've seen 74s and 94s in various videos/pics. 5.45x39 seems most likely but certain some guys are carrying 47s in 7.62x39 for the penetration.
Looks like an AK-74M. The AN-94 is mainly used by special forces I think.
The fact that the western reporters probably outnumbered the Ukrainian soldiers is what got the Russian guy all itchy with his trigger finger LOL. The Ukrainian guys were in formation, but the reporter were the ones swarming and trying to outflank the Russians. I would be more worried about the blond bimbo with the camera crew, heck I watched Men In Black, the blond girl is the threat.
"hey boris and your friends- if you will put your drinks down that i just bought you and grab that flag and march toward those soldiers, i'll give you each a Thousand Rubles and all you can drink when we get back. don't worry the crew and I will be filming the whole time so they wont hurt you guys. and tonite you can show your neighbors and families how you stared down the russians on Youtube- you'll be heroes!"
Is it too early for 'Putin For President' bumper stickers? just askin...............
Someone forgot to bring weapons...Let's march out there and whine and fuss
Still fewer dead than the US Capitol Police have murdered on the steps of Congress to standing ovation.
The murder of peasants is one of those rare things that all of Congress can support.
Pretty impressive the Ukrainian bearing the flag with no weapon was the one shouting the loudest!
In war the flag bearer is always the first one dead. It is an honor to be the flag bearer.
At some point in all of this people better realize that they will have to make choices.
Ya gotta go, ya gotta go. Best to do it on your terms, not someone else's.
Hmmmm. That's not how it worked out in Animal Farm.
Truth dies before the flag bearer.
The first casualty of war.
Not to the mother of the kid that beared that boy from her womb when her son died for a western media stage photo op designed to get more innocent boys killed. Damn it if I was there I would of shot those reporters dead to send Euro News a message.
Well that ended well......
I pretty much speak Russian at this point. The two leader guys were actually in agreement. One guy was yelling at the other guy that bitcoin was back to $700 and the other guys was really pissed off at the msm hit pieces put out last week. They both agreed that they would continue buying it but only on the local bitcoin site.
There's a sucker born every minute.
http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-26420932
I call bullshit - the guy holding the flag was screaming because he thought the price was going to dip below 300 bucks and was wating it out to fill his boots. The big Russian dude was seriously pissed because all his bitcoins were stored with Gox and he really wanted to shoot somebody about it.
Wow, did you miss it.
The fucking base it out of buttwipe. The Russian guy offered some Siberian Army Surplus TP and that's when things got heated.
fonestar was holding the flag.
Dang you beat me to it!!
Fonestar telling the Russians BTC is going to $1 million.
@fonzannoon
LOL before what's his name comes along declaring BitCon really would save everyone...
Another Bitcoin site bites the dustToo bad they cut the end of the video off. fonestar went full retard and did a halalala BOOM!
And the usual western journalists (hyenas) scattering around
You write what you are told...
$364 Million from Taxpayers to Put Liberal Journalists’ Boots on the Ground in Syria
Toothpick I would of shot them western journalists dead if I was that itchy trigger russian guy. My warning shots would not be in the air but into the reporters swarming my flanks. Those Euro Mofo Reporters should of been going back in body bags, they are the scum trying to start WW3
good thing it wasn't a wedding party or owebomba would have droned them all to smithereens
The Russians aren't afaid of no stinking drones they have the S400,greatest super weapon ever. I know it's true,I read it on the internet.
Is that the car where the engine ejects?
I thought that was German?

Its an improved Trabant.
Was this some type of joke? No vehicles and guys looking like they were marching in their jeans and track pants.
And of course with stupid cameramen right along side.
And of course with stupid cameramen right along side.
Well I guess we can leave it all to conjecture for now telling ourselves those sounds we heard coming from the raised weapons were just "blanks"?
Wouldn't want to be the next round of Ukrainian reinforcements at the same checkpoint to find out whether or not they are indeed "blanks"!
.
It wouldn't have been staged if they didn't have a cameraman along.
Very surprised they hadnt already set up grazing fire along the obvious avenue of approach and had to send thst guy running out ...wtf?
Obviously not expecting combat.
My thought as well, they were slow, sluggish, not ready if anything got real, at all.
that was like 6 guys. im sure any REAL action would have brought gunships.
where is Sgt Hulka when you need him
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR5yhKQo3dc
We must have stubbed our "big toe"...
Where are the snipers who were shooting at protesters and police in Kiev? Suddenly lost their desire to create mayhem? Or the pay is not enough to fire at Russians?
They have already been flown to the next proxy war.

This is the time for Kung Fu.
my Kung Fu is superior to your Kung Fu
Kung fu, no shirts on. Like men.
If you like your Kung fu. You can keep your Kung fu
My Kung Fu would say it does not matter since we all turn upon the same wheel.
;)
I believe the best possible outcome for this crisis is for the Russians to get a Referendum going for the local population as quickly as possible. Whne the public decides, then they should let the Ukranian Army leave with their equipment while allowing them to save some measure of dignity.
The Russians can still get satisfactory results from this even if they allow the Ukranians that do not want to be involved with Russia an avenue to retreat in their own territory.
If Ukranians mount a counter-attack, then by all means, use the force required to push them back. The demonstration illustrated in the video seemed to me about wanting to keep some form of dignity. The Ukranians were not stupid enough to show up armed. They would have gotten all killed if they did.
As I have stated before, no matter how stubborn you are, it is not a good idea to mess around with Russians...
.
No need for the Russians to do that. Prior to the weekend's "invasion" the Crimean authorities had already scheduled such a referendum for May 25th. It has since been moved up to March 30th.
"Warning Shoots" : The opposite of "Green Shots".
Tyrers engrish is horribre.
Ukies sounded drunk.
Liquid Courage.
You'd be insane to try that sober.
It's entirely possible the MSM/CIA trolls picked up their bar tab, looking to cash in on some top dollar headline value. At least there was adult supervision to keep things under control.
Those adults are children in my eyes.
All States maintain armies. If the responsible soldiers flee the armies- then the fascists, thugs, and drones are all that remain. That never works out out well for the civilian population. It's simply the world the we all live in, not a reflection of the world most would like to live in.
If they sounded drunk maybe they were Russians in disguise? The twists and turns are getting too complicated.
Nothing to see here boyz and girlz... Now turn the channel back to CNN and watch Wolf Blitzer tell the American sheeple what their government is "REALLY" going to do this time to Russia.
JHC!

Aren't these guys just pro Russian Crimean armed "rebels"? The gear doesn't really look like as if they are well-equipped Russians.
dumb ukrainians should not try to provoke them. probably half drunk
do you enjoy being a coward?
Poking the bear with a stick is fun. You should try it.
Da!...What does not kill you, make you strong!
except for Bears
Bears will kill you.
these guys know crowd control, should have done this in independence square and we would not be in this mess
In the US there would have been about 3 helos over head, everyone would have been facially recognized with cameras, cell phone wifi's tracked, some sort of pepper spray would have been release, people would have been bitten by dogs, then all "detained", zip tied, finger printed book while surrounded by 300 militarized police, and then had an arrest record for the rest of their life never to be able to get a good job again.
Compare that to a couple of guys with AK's and a few warning shots.
Hmmmm.... trying to decide which I prefer....

Guess we know a true democracy when we see one!
LoL
All the other guys in the helos, along with the mechanics and support personnel, the 300 militarized police and their families all will have pretty stable jobs.
The Police State Industrial Complex?
But this is Euronews guys..the actual equivalent for Pravda for EU. I woulnd't be surpised if the so called brave reporters asked for a bunch of Ukranian vodka fueled unamrmed soldier to happily chant and march towards few minutes of tv glory
That comrade at the end of the vid jogging across the field and setting up the PKM position would make anyone reconsider their song filled patriotic walk in the park. 7.62x54R at 650/min probably would sting (just a bit). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UO5GB3-413U
AK-74M with that fast moving little 5.45x39 would be enough to convince me to stop singing. PKM & RPG at the end were a good explanation point though.
But Putin said they are not Russians, merely local militia, who had bought their costumes at the local joke shop?
a million dollars for every one of them boys bitchez
CNBCs current headline "Markets Rebound As Putin Pulls Troops" - Really
So, there are provocations now. Guess what would have been in USA or better still on USA base in Iraq, when you have a bunch of military guys walking to you with video cameras (several teams, by judge of it). When I say to you, I mean to a security post, which is before an airbase or some othe military installation, which is seen behind.
Here, the soldiers just fire in air, promising to shoot into legs, as they have an order.
Do not forget, that Russia has a very signinficant presence in Crimea. Also, it is still impossible to tell if it is Russians or Crimea selfdefence force. Judging by the weapons, it is not Sepcial Forces or VDV guys, it is more like a regular army, or Crimeans.
Putin showed Yanukovich how to defend state's objects
The warning shots weren't for the troops, they were for the camera man.
I don't think those were Russian regulars. I think they were Ukrainian "self defense forces" made up of ethnic Russians who are likely coordinating with Moscow.
If something like this goes south, and we all know the US would love for that to happen, it would be better if Putin can say that it involved only Ukrainian nationals.
Regardless, keep your eye on the big picture.
The fuckery will continue until the peoples of the world revolt against the Global Banking Empire.
O/T:
Really, there isn't an American company that could do this?
Israeli defense firm wins $145 million contract from US Department of Homeland Security.How completely owned by an Israeli 5th Column is DHS. I suspect Chertoff and Lieberman never really "left" and like treasury and state, dhs is Israeli-occupied territory.
If there is any justice left in the universe, may some of it be held aside so that Senator McCain receives it in its full measure before the end, and may he die behind bars.
One has to wonder, how does one procure arms and 400 kilos of explosives? My guess is the local supermarket probably does not stock those items.
Shoot the reporters and camera man.
honestly....
you must have balls to march UNARMED against russian soldiers
They were asking the Russians if they wanted to join them for lunch at Applebees
igor, sergi,....wooops we forgot the rifles.... my bad
Walking unarmed into small arms fire... that takes some SERIOUS sack. Warning shot or no. After the shots are fired, one of the Ukrainians shouts "Go go go."
Yeah, it's all cute acting the fucking wiseass in your barkalounger. The flippancy on this board is astounding. I thought there were more military vets and firearms owners here. WTF.
Seems the senior command was in on the bases being taken over, but the middle and lower ranks have different ideas on the matter. Well well well... that changes everything.
Hat off to the Ukrainians. I seriously thought the entire Ukrainian armed forces were gonna roll over and defect to the Ruskies given their close military history... but if the Ukrainians intend to make it a fight, that's a whole different ballgame.
Maybe Vlad bit off a bit more than he could chew.
If they intended to fight, why haven't they started? If they intended to fight, why march unarmed as at best a stunt? I do not see an intention to fight. What I see is acceptance with just enough protest to keep their honor.
"Dude, I just want to get my weed stash I left in my desk on base. It's getting boring standing around here."
Just a scene for the camera. Only one histerical guy shouting "Go! This land is ours!" (those with the camera, i suppose). Others were... khm, "not enthusiastic". At best.
Only after the commander said to Russians "that's our battle banner, we fought together in 1941 with it! Do you really gona shoot?", and Russians acknowledged, the man with ukranian banner dared to go foward.
All in all - just a provocation. Someone hoped to capture bloodshed in send it to CNN. Sick faggots.
P.S. "Russians" are paramilitary, that's obvious.
That is the first guy you drop, its the big macho guys saying go go go, like you said most likely the cameraman or reporter looking for the shot, but the 'shot' id of given the camera guy would of been between the eyes.
