Ukraine Claims Russian Forces At Border, Attack Conflict Zone; Russia Replies "Complete Rubbish"
After reportedly rejecting Vladimir Putin's peace proposal and continuing heavy shelling in the pro-Russian-held regions of Donetsk, Ukraine's military spokesman Lysenko is reporting the Russian army is directly attacking Ukraine forces in the north conflict zone. The fight over what is now a destroyed Donetsk airport continues with Lysenko claiming to have stalled Russian forces adding that three Russian battallions are approaching the Ukraine border. CNN reports that the Russian Defense Ministry says, "Ukraine's allegations that Russian troops are in Ukraine are complete rubbish."

As Reuters reports,
Ukrainian army units came under attack from Russian regular forces in eastern Ukraine on Tuesday and heavy fighting was taking place, a Ukrainian military spokesman said.
"In spite of preliminary agreements, Ukrainian military units were attacked in the north of the anti-terrorist operational zone by regular military formations of the armed forces of Russia," the spokesman, Andriy Lysenko, said.
"Heavy fighting is continuing near the (Ukrainian army) checkpoints 29 and 31," he said, pinpointing an area near the town of Slovyanoserbsk, northwest of Luhansk.
"Ukrainian forces have stopped the advance of Russian troops ... The situation in the conflict zone is serious but under our control," Lysenko said at a news briefing.
Three more battalion tactical groups of Russian motorised infantry had been tracked inside Russia heading towards the Ukrainian border, as well as an artillery division, he said.
Lysenko's announcement at a specially called news briefing was one of the boldest assertions yet by Ukraine of direct Russian military involvement in the nine-month conflict between pro-Russian separatists and government forces.
Despite what the West and Kiev says is incontrovertible proof, Moscow has continued to deny that any of its regular forces are deployed in Ukraine.
As Bloomberg reports,
Ukrainian govt claims of Russian troops, equipment entering Ukraine Jan. 19 “absolute nonsense,” Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov says in e-mailed statement.
Allegations from Kiev are “hallucinations”: Konashenkov

It sound like Ukraine is about to start losing again and is making up excuses in advance.
Ya know, in a sense these invasions of Ukraine have been getting pretty annoying and tiresome, and I was kinda getting sick of it, but then I realized that it might make a pretty-good drinking game: a shot of chilled liquor (vodka seems appropriate) each time a talking-head on the mainstream news-cycle repeats the words "Russian invasion."
Side bets could include what time of the morning you'd be drunk by, and how long your liver would hold out.

Slovakia - Chek Republic 1992.
Yelena Tumanova, a hospital orderly from Russia’s Mari El republic, said her son Anton Tumanov told her by phone on 10 August that his army unit was being sent to Donetsk. On 20 August, a coffin came back to Mari El with a small window through which she could see his face. His legs had been torn off by an artillery strike, his comrades told her. He was 20 years old.
“When he chose this path, we didn’t know they were sending our soldiers to Ukraine,” Tumanova told the Guardian. “If I would have known, if he would have known … he would not have joined up again. Even if he would have, I wouldn’t have let him. But he said: ‘Don’t worry, [the Russian president Vladimir] Putin says they won’t send anyone there.’”
Tumanov’s death certificate from a Rostov morgue said only that he died at “the place of temporary deployment of military unit 27777 … of massive blood loss [from] multiple shrapnel wounds”, the independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta reported.

@ freedom123
Thanks be to Allah that we western friendlies are 'utilizing Booze Allen Hamilton Internships & Assorted Spooks alongside Private Mercs to do our DIRTY WORK in Greater Ukrania '. DA Comrade?
What i 'like' about you, well 'hate less' is your unbridled devotion to .GOV. It's NOT LIKE you've got any SKIN in the GAME like a PAYCHECK is it? YOU CUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wtfud......it appears that you are the one whose being paid to post here. I have only one question for you...... how much does Putin pay you to post here?
@ FJF
On the contrary, Sir!
I would NOT lower myself to be a paid lackey of ANY scum Government.
Zero skin in this GAME but to SAVOUR Vichy DC's & Captured Puppet EU's warmongering END.
As usual, Kiev Yatzi Banderatards work in pair, one side working to enable the other in their lie...
Sooo, freedom123, if irregulars from pravisektor wear SS Galizien Division shoulder patches, as they do usually, it means that Hitlerites are murdering russians again, right?
And Putin helps NR to resist Hitlerite aggression?
Thats about this *marine* video segment.All the rest is rubbish and rather bad chosenite agitprop.
Freedom123..... Thank you for your post. You are the only one here who makes any sense. Also thank you for mentioning facts - something that the paid Russian morons will continue to ignor.
The moment one mentions "paid Russian", one loses all credibility. How long have you worked for .gov? (There, see how easy that is?)
You are welcome, my friend. But I only re-post materials that expose Putin regime crimes and other facts Putin regime & it's trolls are hidding from westerners. I understand Russian and that is why it's easy for me to collect and share these materials.
it's easy for me to selectively collect and share these materials.
There, fixed it for ya!
If this is what we get for $5 Billion dollars, I can speak on behalf of all American people......WE GOT ROBBED!!!
It would not surprise me at all. Is it right? Perhaps not but Ukraine is Yugoslavia 2.0 on steroids. Everybody in the Yugoslav war just wanted to protect their own (that war btw. heavily influenced and interfered by the West because Yugoslavia had to disappear).What do you think America would do if either Canada or Mexico would start shelling Americans living there?
There are millions of ethnic Russians living in Ukraine and there are millions of mixed marriages. Yugoslavia ended up on the carving board and it led to the death of 100,000 people and around a million displaced people.
If the situation in Ukraine deteriorates then the body count and the number of displaced people will be much much bigger plus this whole thing can go out of control quite easily. And again as I said before to you, this thing is not about Ukraine at all.
The Russian marines are "shopped". Only the one guy, one of Givi's men I think, has the patch and if you look you can see the inconsistency.
There are some 'hot deals' on Russian uniforms and badges atm... priority international shipping is available too :-)
You have to admire the fact the CIA has created all these niche businesses which support our economy.
They probably own Goldman, too, only the Shadow Knows...
If it takes more than one day to capture Ukraine, that's not Russian military obviously. The whatever military spokesman won't even have to tweet it.
Ukraine has the same problem most bullies have - once you reduce a city to rubble, kill off a family member, destroy any jobs, knock out power and utilities, and restrict availability to food -- you create MOAR rebels!
I hope Ukraine / Kiev implode right in Nulands face!!!
HEAVY FIGHTING STILL GOING ON BUT UKRAINIANS HAVE HALTED ADVANCE OF RUSSIAN FORCES - MILITARY SPOKESMAN LYSENKO
Now we know for sure they are lying.
ROFLMAO Spanish I spit my coffeee on my monitor reading that statement. Hell the Nazi's cannot even stop the rebels the Russian regulars would plaw right through the kiev forces. Oh wait I checked on the YV and there were no new flashes about the all out attack by Russia!
just in time when we hear of possible sanctions removal from EU
Russia making advances at the EU (and Greece).
Greeks Reject Euro, Join EEU/SCO
In a bold move after elections, the Ruling Party has voted to reject NATO and the Euro.
The Government asked for time as Financial Systems are switched over. Any Greek citizen can apply at a bank for temporary script, good for food, water, and gas.
The PRC and Russia welcomed Greece into their new Union.
In a joint meeting, the Greek, Chinese and Russian Foreign Ministers signed the initial Agreement.
In addition to quick, but temporary interest-free funding, the Russian and Chinese Navies have also gained the option of building the Greek shipping-terminal infrastructure to serve as a hi-tech dry dock and repair facility for their naval ships.
The Red Air Force has also gained access to the now-former NATO airfields. NATO has 30 days to remove its forces.
Somebody needs to tell Darth Soros and his protege "Petro" that killing lots of ethnic Russians in his own Country as the newly minted military dictator ain't a wise move -especially when the Country you are trying hard to war with has your "winter gas"!
On a scale of 1 to 10 How retarded?
Bwa Hah Hah ha ha ha ha!!!!
It's not just retarded, it's Banderatarded.
On a long enough timeline the lying rate for everyone drops to zero.

If Russians were really invading they'd take Kiev in 48 hours!

But that Putin would completely reveal it's fascist face and be totally isolated from world - that is what he doesn't want. So he is playing this hybrid war.
Give it a rest .
mAX, HE CAN'T.f 123 IS PAID PER POST.
I almost feel sorry for you now that they've finally gotten around to installing the porn blocking software at the U.S. State Department.
I feel sorry for the fuck because trolling Zero Hedge has got to be the worst job in the entire department. Controlling the narrative on CNBC or Fox News is like a hundred times easier. It must be the equivilent of scrubbing the toilets in a downtown public bathroom - you gotta wonder who he pissed off to get the posting.

That's why the job has been outsourced to a Latvian honeydipper. His trolling earns him one potato daily.

There, there, you'll get over it. I'm sure there will be another proxy war someplace else and the State Department will be hiring again.
"...he [Putin] is playing this hybrid war."
Is that a bit like the "hybrid" war being played by Washington/Westminster and EU whereby they are supplying lethal weapons to the fascist Poroshenko (by their own admission) and at the same time they're accusing Russia of misbehaving in East Ukraine without actually telling us what it is that Putin's supposed to have done there (except invade the place at least 12 times according to Poroshenko and faithfully reported by your goodself).
Methinks something doesn't fit.
Have a look at this guy's bio and have a good laugh. He feels it is his duty to enlighten us poor misinformed ZH people. 11 weeks and counting.
Anyway, Russia is being set up into invading Ukraine so the West can say what a big fascist Putin really is. Don't get me wrong, I don't like Putin but I don't like this game that is being played in Ukraine either. If you think it is about bringing peace, democracy, freedom and human rights and all to Ukraine then think again. The fight in Ukraine is not about Ukraine at all. It is part of a bigger game.
I cannot believe most Americans think Russia is the invader. That's just me, but if you carefully look at the facts, there can be no doubt who started this fiasco and it wasn't Russia.
Among other possibilities, Ukraine could be a diversionary front at this point. While the Russians are busy with that, Washington might just go ahead and grab Syria. I hear O'Bomber is already seeking and AUMF on Syria from Congress. Then there's that Charlie Hebdo psy-op over in France. Something big could be coming in the middle east soon.
The map of the ME is being redrawn along sectarian lines. It will be Shiites/Iran vs. Sunni/Saudi Arabia.

John Kerry needs to deliver one of those theraputic hugs now that France has healed.
I take it that we now have the milsat images of this incursion? Presumably we also know which divisions are involved? Just watching some live footage froim Donetsk on RT and there is certainly some heavy action going down there, but it's just the Ukes shelling the Novi Russ. Certain amount of urban re-development evident as to be expected.
Ukies must be losing again... last time the "Russians invaded" they were getting their ass handed to them by the Eastern NovoRussian republics.
The Ukrainians were told from the getgo that they did not have to tell the truth. That the NYT and WaPo would back up whatever they said. One Ukrainian field commander actually accused the Russian of using tactical nukes.
http://rt.com/news/189420-ukraine-nuclear-strike-russia/
Poroshenko and Yats have been playing 'good cop bad cop' since the beginning. Saying the truce will be honored and then breaking it a day or two later. The longest the Minsk truce was accepted was for 4 or 5 days before Russia and Ukraine signed their the gas deal in September.
If the Russians really had invaded South-east Ukraine, it would be a safe bet that Russian Su-27's, Iskander missiles, would soften up the Ukrainian positions first.
Anybody know if Lysenko made any such claims?
Somehow I do not think tactical nukes would get past the OSCE Monitors.
Iskanders can be, but are not necessarily tactical nukes.
They are small, mobile, versatile, and positively wicked.
They come in a wide variety of flavors and configurations.
I am so satisfied that the indestructable Ukrainian Army repelled the 39th Sowiet invasion.
That will teach them basterds.
All that's required now is Obama to announce that the Ukraine has been a foreign policy success for his Administration like Yemen. Then we will know for sure the Ukraine is finished.
Maybe they just sent Advisers, the way the US/DOD does.
"I'll see your Advisers and raise you a 1000." ;-)
Russia did not start this, that Ziogirl at State did.
So, if I were Vlad, I would not feel guilty about discreetly sending Advisers in, carefully equipped with Ukraine IDs. There is no way to prove they are Red Army, since they would have fake IDs and look like the other residents of the area.
And, who could not justify Russian response to provocation?
These fuckers want my kids to go fight over there?
Haha.
The war is going as well as can be expected. It's a booldbath now but the rebels are steadily pushing back the Ukies and are prevailing pretty well everywhere they fight.
This is why the Russian army crap is being bandied about now. Whenever they get their asses handed to them it's the Russians!
Correction:
The Rebels or NovorRussia/DPR were destroying the Ukie Army in various cauldrons in the late summer/fall. Cauldron means they were essentially surrounded. The Ukies did the same thing at the Donestsk airport. DPR had to allow aid and food in because they had the airport surrounded.
The only reason for the truce was it was going so badly that Kiev panicked and called time out. Well they started it back up this past week and it is going just as badly as before.
I have no idea what Kiev, the USA and NGOs are thinking.
My guess is most of the Ukrainian conscripts and soldiers want no part of any of this and they surrender. They can shell people but on the battlefield they are pretty hopeless. The Ukie men need to quit before they all get slaughtered. Their enemy is in Kiev.
All of it is tragic and sad but shows how evil some people running this farce are.
I was just thinking that..each time they get whacked, it is suddenly due to an invasion of the Red Army.
and how many times already this lysenko guy been proven spreading hearsay?
And This:
http://www.businessinsider.com/russia-iran-signed-military-cooperation-2...
Not so sure Itsahell will be pleased about this.
Ukraine was recently caught, earlier this month, buying up a bunch of old Russian tanks from Moldavia and are planting them on their border as "proof" that Russia is invading; Trouble is, Russia hasnt used that model for over 10 years. EPIC FAIL!
The propaganda continues...
Judging from the competency of the various players, the smart money may be on Russia and China ramming this prime example of US meddling and buffoonery straight up the rear end of the EU.
It's amazing how Russia has invaded Ukraine three dozen times, by my count, and has made no headway whatsoever. Man those Ukies are putting up a hell of a fight.
They are not really invading, just giving them a kick in the teeth when need be. You gotta feel sorry for those poor Ukrainian conscripts.
"You gotta feel sorry for those poor Ukrainian conscripts."
I do feel sorry for the poor Ukrainian conscripts. Not so much for the Ukie oligarchs' mercenary death squads.
The Ukies are doing especially well, considering that the Russians have invented Romulan cloaking-devices for their tanks.
jeezus, how many fucking times can the Kiev putsch regime lie about the same thing?
"Russian forces captured all of Ukraine but were pushed back in only half an hour by our troops."
--Kiev Bob
And yet the oil price still fell.
"Ukrainian forces have stopped the advance of Russian troops"
Hahahahhahahaha!
Sure. You bet.
Russia should keep forces at the border, Kiev will say they are there regardless being pathological liars, so you might as well keep troops there unless the logistics are difficult.
Many of you are old enough to remember this:
We used to have a football game with a vibrator under the field. You had football players with plastic fins on their feet. After you set up your men, you turned on the switch and the players would 'run' all over the field, but in any direction. Your ball carrier might go the wrong way and fall off the table.
Somehow, it makes me think of the Ukr. Army.
Oh, another fake Russian invasion. Yawn!
On June 5, 1967, war broke out between Israel and its Arab neighbors. The Arabs announced that they were annihilating the Israeli army and smashing its air force. The Israeli government announced only that hostilities had begun.
Within days, the Arabs were begging the US and Soviet Union to make Israel stop. Stop what, you just said you were crushing Israel?
Now Poroshenko's playing the same strategy: telling the West that it must stop Russia's rape of poor helpless Ukraine, while telling his own people that the brave, powerful Ukrainian army is destroying the inept, cowardly Russian foe.
Dear Dave A dimwit,read history,not reruns on MSM.
I'm sorry, I misread history. You're right, the Arabs won, and Israel no longer exists.
I wonder how many people here remember that Ukraine had the 3rd. largest nuclear arsenal in the world at the time of the USSR collapse? They embarked on a massive nuclear disarmament campaign, but they stil have at least 90 OTR-21 missile launchers which could be fitted with nuclear warheads. No direct threat to Russia due to range, but think of the false flag operation Kiev/US could do with just one, it would make MH17 look like noob hour!
is this invasion 5 or 6?
