Russian TV accidentally shows Russian soldier in Ukraine's Donetsk airport

&x-yt-ts=1421782837

Video footage has emerged from Russian state-controlled television reportedly shot inside the Donetsk airport in eastern Ukraine and showing troops with the insignia of the Russian Naval Infantry, or Russian Marines, on the soldiers' uniforms, according to reports from Ukraine Today, an independent Kiev-based TV station.

If true, the video further undermines Russia’s denial it is providing soldiers to fight alongside pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine.

The Kremlin-backed TV station Rossiya 1 first broadcast the video on Jan. 15. The Ukraine government claims that about 700 Russian troops arrived in the country on Monday.
