Conflict Intelligence Team: military equipment is being brought to the border with Ukraine “in alarming quantities”
Analysts from the Conflict Intelligence Team found new photos and videos on social media showing the movement of Russian troops and military equipment to regions bordering Ukraine.
In particular, the experts managed to calculate the transfer of new equipment in the Voronezh region, as well as the movement of trains from the Stavropol region towards the Crimea.
Analysts noted that the equipment is being transported to the border of Ukraine "in alarming quantities, which can only be explained with a stretch by the rearmament of active units."
According to CIT, the movement of troops is relatively slow - but if this pace continues until January, the total number of troops near the border will significantly exceed April, when Russia was also pulling troops.
One way or another, we agree with intelligence assessments that readiness for a possible operation on the territory controlled by the Ukrainian authorities will be achieved at least not earlier than the beginning of next year.
- The Western media and politicians have been talking about the buildup of Russian troops on the border with Ukraine over the past few weeks. The New York Times wrote that American intelligence warned its allies in Europe about the possibility of a Russian invasion of Ukrainian territory.
- Russia categorically denies suspicions of preparations for a military operation, and also emphasizes that the movement of equipment and troops across the territory of the Russian Federation is an exclusively internal matter.
