Related: About this forumRussian TV accidentally shows Russian soldier in Ukraine's Donetsk airport
&x-yt-ts=1421782837Video 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.
