Russian troops storm Ukrainian airbase in Crimea

Russian troops stormed an airbase in Crimea today, injuring one soldier.

Earlier today, hundreds of unarmed pro-Russian Crimean protestors stormed a Ukrainian naval base in the western region of Crimea.

Russia’s latest assault on Ukrainian facilities comes despite extended sanctions placed on President Putin’s close circle by the US and the EU.
