From the Internet web site "South Front" and thanks to same.

"DOZEN UKRAINIAN TANKS TRIED TO BREAK INTO RUSSIAN TERRITORY"

Spoiling attack?

"spoiling attack: noun - - a limited objective attack launched to disrupt enemy plans or operations"

"On Arpil [sic] 22, a column of Ukrainian tanks reportedly attempted to break into the Russian territory from the Kharkiv region. According to the Russian sources, the Ukrainian command decided to send a tank company of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the offensive from the territory of the Kharkiv region towards the Russian Belgorod region. The breakthrough attempt was thwarted."

"The incident took place in the area of Goptovka, near a checkpoint on the Ukrainian-Russian border in the Dergachevsky district of the Kharkiv region. 10 Ukrainian tanks headed towards the checkpoint. It is reported that Russian troops were hit and then returned fire. According to the reports by Russian military reporters, 8 Ukrainian tanks were destroyed as a result of fighting, 2 others turned back."

HEY, YOU ATTACK US, WE ATTACK YOU. YOU PUNCH US, WE PUNCH YOU!

Attacks by the Ukrainian on Russian territory to this point very limited almost non-existent. See previous blog entry as applies:
