https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_green_men_(Ukrainian_crisis)

The "little green men" (Russian: зелёные человечки zelyonye chelovechki; Ukrainian: зелені чоловічки zeleni cholovichky) were Russian soldiers who were masked and wore unmarked uniforms upon the outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian War in 2014. They were active just before and during the Russian annexation of Crimea and carried regular weapons and equipment, but were always masked and wore distinctly unmarked green military fatigues.
