Russia has left military units near the Ukrainian border after exercises, with the number of Russian troops in the area now totalling 90,000, Ukraine’s Defence Ministry says
Satellite images show Russian armored units and support equipment in a Russian town called Yelnya, about 260 km from the Ukrainian border.
Units of Russia's 41st Army stayed behind in Yelnya after the large-scale trainings, about 260 km from the Ukrainian border, the Ukrainian Defence Ministry said on Wednesday. This spring, Moscow alarmed Kiev and Western capitals by building up more than 100,000 of troops along the border with Ukraine, though it later ordered them back to base.
"Based on a review of recent satellite images, the equipment likely began arriving in the area in late September," Maxar commented.
