German media report that Ukrainian military forces have directly engaged Russian units that were reported to have entered Ukraine in the darkness of the night. Several of the attacked Russian armoured personnel carrier should have been destroyed. British reporters claimed last night that a convoy of two dozen armoured troop carriers entered the Ukraine at night, with soldiers and vehicles displaying national Russian colours and emblems.

If this gets confirmed, it could be the beginning of a formal Ukrainian-Russian war. In this case, such a war maybe will no longer be limited to the Eastern part only.

At the last count, NATO claimed that Russia had some 45 or 48 thousand troops in "combat-ready" status near the border.

Ukrainian artillery should have destroyed "a significant share", in other formulations "the better share" or "most of" the Russian column.

Meanwhile the foreign minister of Latvia claims not just two dozens, but over 70 Russian vehicles moved into the Ukraine last night, loaded with equipment and military supplies.
