The trucks were carrying ammunition and fighters, said a military spokesman, but the BBC cannot confirm his report.
A column of 32 tanks, 16 howitzer artillery systems and trucks carrying ammunition and fighters has crossed into eastern Ukraine from Russia, the Kiev military said on Friday.
ANY evidence about the "multiple" invasions?
5th Russian convoy crosses Ukraine-Russia border, delivers aid to Lugansk
A Russian truck convoy carrying humanitarian aid, including food, construction materials, fuel and medicine has crossed the border into Ukraine after going through inspections by Ukrainian border guards and customs officers. The convoy, dispatched by the Russian Ministry for Emergency Situations (EMERCOM), was carrying more than 1,000 tons of relief aid, according to Oleg Voronov, deputy head of the ministry, as cited by TASS. More than 50 vehicles have arrived in Lugansk and are currently being unloaded, while 50 more are en route to Donetsk, says Voronov. This is the fifth such aid convoy sent to war-torn southeastern Ukraine since August.

They keep repeating this same line over and over again, yet never present any evidence at all to back any of it up.

The OSCE monitors along the border have seen no movement of Russian forces or truckloads of arms and ammunition either.
(Reuters) - Russia has refused to increase international monitoring of the border with Ukraine, the United States said on Wednesday, after European security watchdog OSCE extended its observers' existing mandate at two checkpoints by a month.
Bosworth said it was "deeply regrettable" that Russia would not agree to expand the OSCE's monitoring work on the border.
"We once again have to accept a limited-scope mission, covering just two border checkpoints - which account for approximately one kilometer (0.6 miles) of the 2,300 kilometer border," she said in a statement.

I guess the rebels were well stocked with arms and ammunition from the depots they captured very early on, as well as arms captured from fleeing government forces.

I guess old Porky and willing propaganda mouthpieces like the BBC will keep repeating it all over and over again though as they seem to think a lie, often repeated, becomes the truth. In these modern times of on the ground reports, instant information uploads and citizen reporting, they have long ago lost the propaganda war, yet keep trying anyway.

I guess the separatists are getting their ammo directly from God, then.
