On March 15, near 1 p.m. border guards performing regime control tasks at the administrative border of Kherson and Crimea regions nearby Strilkove settlement watched helicopter-borne assault of 60 Russian Federation military out of 4 helicopters. Border guards together with Ukrainian Armed Forces military (about 20 people) were forced to drop back to the crossroads leading towards Henichesk town and take up the defensive positions. Russian troops beeing beefed up by 3 armored infantry fighting carriers began equipping engineering positions. Around 3.30 p.m. there was another helicopter-borne assault of 60 Russian soldiers out of 6 helicopters in that area. In addition, it is known that the armored infantry fighting carriers convoy is moving now towards Strilkove settlement along the Arabat Spit from Kamianske settlement.

At the same time, in the course of negotiations between Berdyansk border guard detachment command and Russian soldiers it was found that the purpose of their landing is supposedly "guarding to prevent possible terrorist attacks" on “Chornomornaftohaz” gas hydraulic station located in the area. There is no forced confrontation there at the moment. Details are being specified.
