Scots tell of Russian gunpoint ordeal at Ukrainian border

Joe, left and Gary, were given a letter from Ukrainian police to help them get through stop checks on the road as they travel through the war-ravaged country

The landscape gardeners got caught in a convoy of Russian troops as they headed for the north-eastern city of Sumy. He said: "The last couple of days we've been held at gunpoint by Russian troops, we've had our tyres shot out, we've had our truck ransacked, they've stolen my phone."One of the Russian bullets went straight through the rim of the tyre on the men's truck

Joe said: "Basically, we ended up on the tail of a Russian convoy. They let us get halfway down for some reason, I don't know why, and then they wouldn't let us past.

RUS fear of joining UKR's NATO has disappeared. Therefore, the trigger of the world war is only the attack for the RUS army of the third country. 🕊in short,World war can be prevented🕊 RUS and UKR the war are just theirs. Don't give a reason to attack your land.

Many countries have armed guards at border crossings. America has dozens. It's war. It is hardly unlikely to see an armed border patrol.

If you want peace, your top priority is the safety of your land and your family. It is foolish to put your family at risk for your neighbors. RUS and UKR the war are just theirs. 🍀 Don't give a reason to attack your land.

“The last couple of days we've been held at gunpoint by Russian troops, we've had our tyres shot out, we've had our truck ransacked, they've stolen my phone.' Well you drove into a war zone…

Isn't that what war is ? Having guns pointed at you.
