Geolocation of car driving through Ukrainian checkpoint and gets sprayed with bullits 22-5.

Geolocation of car driving through Ukrainian checkpoint and getting sprayed with bullits, near Rubizhne 22-5.

This is the video:



Some important landmarks are:
  1. A sign with prices for a petrol station.
  2. A road/crossing on the right side.
  3. A sign that this is the end of the city
  4. A man runs away to the right and down from the checkpoint




There are only two exits from the city of which this one matches the situation:


Google maps:



Because of this, we now know the location of a Ukrainian checkpost.
This is useful to better understand the battle at Rubizhne.

Possible scenario.
It is hard to understand why somebody in a normal car would try to drive through an armed checkpost. It is either an attempt to attack or an attempt to flee.
Attacking does not seem to be very likely, because it was a lonely attempt destined to fail.
Fleeing does not seem to be likely either, because why not go through the woods?

What's really strange is that the cameraman seemed to know about it and started filming it...

  1. I hear three voices in this video. Both are teenagers (judging by voice pitch and words used). One of them states he have lots of different videos. What that means - don't know - maybe they are filming this checkpoint frequently, maybe - something else. I don't think this is a setup.
    Driver probably got a nervous breakdown. I hope he is alive.
