It appears that Ukrainians have unleashed killer robots against the peaceful Russian citizens currently vacationing in various parts of Eastern Ukraine, who are only testing their new Kalashnikovs and artillery pieces they got for Christmas...

Never fear, though! The valiant Russian Confederation is sending top agents to defeat the Ukrainian Robot menace!
