Yup, those would be the ones. Nice long convoy of them with APCs and tanks at the head and tail, cruising down the highway.
Seeing this kind of stuff is par for the course out there though. Drove from Rostov na donu to Stalingrad and there were huge (and I mean HUGE) convoys of tanks cruising down to syria's neck of the woods.
This isn't news to the world, it's just known stuff that isn't talked about as it doesn't mesh very well with realpolitik.
Edit: think there was also a satan in the convoy we saw, two massive stages on separate carriers. Proper "oh holy shit what am I seeing pretend I'm not here" stuff.
