According to Ukrainian analysts, the details depicted in these videos do not correspond to reality. However, an analysis revealed that both videos were shot in the same location. The places that are visible in it are only a few metres apart.

One of the videos showed shots being fired from the other side at a Russian border post near Rostov. This video was recently discussed, and another video on the Telegram app has also gone viral. It revealed that some Ukrainians were attempting to infiltrate inside the Russian border in the same area.

Following the release of these videos, Russia's Federal Security service (FSB) stated that two Ukrainian armoured vehicles were spotted crossing the Russian border in the Rostov region. Following that, Russia's Southern Military district Command issued a statement claiming the deaths of five people attempting to infiltrate along the border.

The decision was made at a National Security Council meeting.

According to reports, the Russian President convened a meeting of his National Security Council only after receiving these reports.

Experts in attendance at the meeting sought advice on next steps. FSB director Alexander Bortikov reported the fall of shells from the other side of the Russian border during the meeting. He claimed that two Ukrainian military groups had arrived near the Russian border in the regions of Luhansk and Donetsk.

According to him, these incidents are exacerbating the situation in that area. According to reports, Russian President Vladimir Putin decided to recognise Luhansk and Donetsk based on this assessment.

Both videos' veracity has been called into question.

However, concerns have been raised about the veracity of both the videos that have surfaced in ukraine and other Western countries. According to Ukrainian analysts, the details depicted in these videos do not correspond to reality.

According to analysts at the US Defense Intelligence Institute Jens, the vehicle seen in the video is most likely an upgraded Russian vehicle. However, he has also stated that it is impossible to be certain that it is not a Ukrainian army vehicle.

In a video, a Ukrainian official can be seen. However, in an interview with CNN, that official referred to the footage as "Bollywood." He claimed that the video was created in Russia's "Fake Factory."
