Loose Canons in Russian Army

The Russian city of Novosibirsk has been a major staging area for sending Russian army regulars to fight in Eastern Ukraine. Stripped of insignia and anything that would identify the Russian military, men and equipment regularly make the trek from this city to Ukraine.

On 8 May however the Russians discovered a loose canon in their ranks-literally. While rounding a corner to take the highway out of the city, one canon broke loose and provided for a little excitement on the streets of Novosibirsk.

Authorities claim the unmarked equipment was en route to a Victory Day parade.
