About 22x Russian military vehicles, all "Z" marked, parked together north of #Kharkiv at 50.4479 36.3434 as of 1500 UTC on 5 March 2022.

Another convoy coming past...

License plate 1276EK-43 ... swapping containers with a civilian car. Maybe dinner?

That's a big pot...

Explosives? @DI_Ukraine

Smile! You're on candid camera! 📸

Seriously? You're just going to pee in the street?

So, going to #Kharkiv or coming from #Kharkiv ?

What are you doing to the phone or power cables?

Are they waiting on the side of the road with sleeping bags?

So it looks like a lot of Russia soldiers are going to be sleeping here tonight - 50.4438 36.3446

That placard is for explosives, right?

More Russian forces headed toward Belgorod- a pretty big convoy

Getting settled in for the night. Still busy by the building with two trucks (lower left corner)

Lots of people hanging around this truck...

I don't envy these guys trying to back up a large truck at night in the snow...

Oooo...see those black cables by the building... it looks like they're wiring into communications or power in the building...

Cables run to the trucks here by the building, all clustered close together

Rest of the vehicles are all turned off now. It seems most of the Russian soldiers are sleeping at 50.4438 36.3446, and this little command/communications node is still busy at 50.4469 36.3405.

Russian troops still in building at 50.4438 36.3446 along with a few trucks.

Definitely explosives hazmat sign on this truck. They keep unpacking what looks like sleeping bags/mats and taking them to the building down the street.

Ah, the explosives truck just was taking all the gear to to the Russian soldiers in the other building...

Still having trouble with the power/data connections...

License plate with a "50" code (Moscow Military District) 8967AV-50

The Russian military unit currently parking their equipment overnight at 50.4470 36.3405, has a mix of license plate code of "43"- from the Kirov region - and "50" - Moscow.

Another convoy from #Kharkhiv is coming back to Russia

You've got to be kidding me...are they joining us here?

They're driving around into a residential neighborhood. I think someone made a wrong turn.

One truck joined

But the rest of the convoy is probably wondering why they're stuck in this neighborhood at 10:30pm local (1930 UTC)

Here they come...

Quite a cozy little nest of Russian vehicles ready to bed down for the night. It would be a shame if something happened around 50.4474 36.3389...

Civilian car parked with the military unit. License plate A280MX01

Whatcha got there, fella? License plate 2157EK43

20-30x more Russian soldiers arrived. Heading off to bed.

I know logistics are bad in the Russian army, but don't they have toilets?

Where in the hell are you going at this hour?

Just going to the temporary barracks.

It's 3:15am in Russia - Why in the hell are 4 more military trucks coming to this grouping location on the border near #kharkiv now?
