Russian soldiers VK-page shows RUSSIA is shelling Ukraine with heavy artillery

Valdimir Petrov @_hedder found evidence of a Russian artillery unit shelling Ukrainian positions from Russian territory, because a soldier from this unit is posting photos on his VKontakte page (the Russian Facebook). Or course immediately after discovering this, his page has been deleted. But the info is still here:

The smartest part about this is, that the geotag shows where he is:

This is indeed the area of heavy fighting where Russia tries to cut of the Ukrainian units that patrol the border.

This is not an incident. Russia is constantly attacking Ukraine across the border. See this blog.
