CRIMEA ANNEXATION

Russian troops invade Ukraine and seize Crimea

Date: March 11, 2014

Location: Chonhar, Crimea Ukraine

In dispatch six, VICE News correspondent Simon Ostrovsky travels to the Kherson region of mainland Ukraine to both the Ukrainian and Russian checkpoints. At the Ukrainian checkpoint, Simon goes inside one of their tanks, and speaks to the commander, who says that despite his Russian blood he will defend all invaders. But at the Russian checkpoint, the exchange isn’t quite as cordial.
