Default OT: Russian invasion of Ukraine

Do my eyes deceive me? I'm seeing regular Russian Army T-72s on Ukrainian soil on tonight's news footage. That's not mobilization only, fresh-out-of-mothballs surplus stuff, that's genuine Cold War MBTs rolling across the border. And still the Russians say it's not their military that's involved, but maybe some soldiers who are "on leave and fighting as volunteers". So they went on leave and took their tanks with them? The arrogance just amazes me.
