According to the Russian border department, in this way it is planned to ensure the stability of the Don region and stop the illegal circulation of weapons, which has recently begun to grow.
Over the past 5 months of 2015, Rostov border guards detained 130 border violators and stopped 60 attempts to bring weapons and ammunition into the country. In total, more than 40 firearms, more than 200 grenades and 30 mines were seized. Fire was opened on the border line five times.
Thus, Russia is doing the same thing as Ukraine. Let us recall that the Ukrainian side, in turn, plans to strengthen the Ukrainian-Russian border in three years. In 2015, about $200 million will be spent on this.
Let us also recall that on Saturday Ukraine began a water blockade of Donbass.
