WHY WOULD THE SEPARATISTS TRANSPORT A SMOKING GUN BUK TO THE KIEV NAZIS?

The LiveUAMap is a reliable and very handy tool for identifying what territory was controlled by whom and on which day.

Below is the state of play around Luhansk on 12th July. The uncoloured areas were controlled by the Kiev Nazis.

The positions can be corroborated by tweets and media reports, some of which are provided by LiveUAMap on the right hand side of the screen. Basically Luhansk and Luhansk airport were under separatist control in early July but on 13th July the Kiev Nazis began to punch a hole in the separatists lines to capture and create a corridor to Luhansk airport, and within a few days had succeeded. Even Poroshenko tweeted this intent on 13th July. In other words throughout mid July the Kiev Nazis were focusing intently on the areas south and west of Luhansk, i.e. between Sizhne and Luhansk.

We still have to answer why the separatists would be driving a BUK with the covers removed to show missing missiles through territory that the Kiev Nazis had fought hard to gain south of Luhansk.

But here is another question: where was it going to go after Luhansk? Was it going to stay in Luhansk? But why risk this when Luhansk was at the time the focus of the Kiev Nazi military campaign?

And the routes north of Luhansk were also under Kiev Nazi control.

So if the BUK was in Luhansk then to get to Russia it would have to go directly east. But along which roads? Are any suitable for a large low loader?

It seems that driving the BUK into Luhansk from Sizhne was a very silly and illogical thing to do, because to get to Luhansk from Sizhne the assumed 'smoking gun' BUK with missing missileand cover removed would have to go through territory controlled by the Kiev Nazis and then straight into a war zone!! Why do this when the BUK could be kept deep in separatist controlled territory away from large urban areas and war zones where a Kiev Nazi could see it and/or film it? It is, as Spock would say, "highly illogical".

But Luhansk could also have been a dead end, because there is no easy route to Russia from Luhansk without again encountering the Kiev Nazis north of Luhansk at the time.

Perhaps the video was shot in Krasnodon after all?
