Good Morning! โ˜•๏ธ
Here we go again...New #Ukraine ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ/ #Russia ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Thread
๐Ÿ‘‡
Couple of hours ago, the #US urged Americans in #Belarus and parts of Moldova to depart now amid Russian threat
#US officials say #Russia already amassed 105 Battalion tactical groups near #Ukraine's border. About 500 combat aircraft are withing range and 40 combat ships are in the Black Sea.
India is calling on it's citizens to leave #Ukraine
Some Russian forces near #Ukraine returning to bases: ministry - AFP

We heard that before. Lets wait and see what is happening on the ground.
Units of Southern & Western military districts, having completed their tasks, have already begun loading onto rail & road transport and will begin moving to their military garrisons today.ย Separate units will march on their own as part of military columns - Ru Defense Ministry
โ€œFebruary 15, 2022 will go into history as the day western war propaganda failed. They have been disgraced and destroyed without a single shot being firedโ€ - Russian Foreign Ministry
First Russian "proof" of tanks moving back to base
They COULD actually use this to back down. We will see. I have a slight glimmer of hope here to be honest.
Loading of units of the Russian Armed Forces to return to the garrisons after participating in the exercise "Allied Resolve-2022" in #Belarus
#Ukraine and West have managed to "prevent" Russian escalation - #Kyiv via AFP
More reports of Russian troop withdraw..oh wait that's from April 2021
cnbc.com/2021/04/22/rusโ€ฆ
But here, more troop withdraw news..ah shit, that's from end of January 2022
rbc.ru/politics/29/01โ€ฆ

Russian military equipment was filmed in Pinsk, #Belarus this morning moving towards Luninets
Deep breath. We can not confirm or deny a possible withdraw of Russian troops right now anyway. Next hours will surely bring some more clarity.
The State Duma of the Russian Federation voted for the recognition of the #DPR and #LPR, the decision will be sent to President Putin now
"I hope the history of the #OSCE mission in Kosovo, where its withdrawal was used as a trigger for #NATO aggression, will not be repeated in Donbas" - Lavrov
The first Russian video footage of the alleged withdraw was showing some tanks moving around 180km from mainland #Ukraine.
Many new videos of Russian equipment on the move today but as most are likely from yesterday i don't see the point in posting them right now until we can tell how real the withdraw is.
#NATO SecGen @jensstoltenberg says โ€œeverything is in placeโ€ for #Russia to launch attack - "no sign of de-escalation on the ground"
Uragan MLRS and other Russian military equipment was spotted moving from Mozyr, #Belarus towards Lelchytsy, which is located 10 km from the border with #Ukraine.
Yes, this convoy is moving closer to the border with #Ukraine and the video was reportedly filmed today.
From what i read, and i might be wrong here, Putin has 30 days to react on the State Duma request
#LPR says on of it's soldiers was killed today due to "enemy sniper fire"
Ministry of State Security of the Luhansk People's Republic prevented a terrorist attack in Luhansk - TASS
tass.ru/mezhdunarodnayโ€ฆ
Putin says although #US and #NATO responses "didn't answer #Russia's concerns" they "contained ideas that we are not against discussing"
Again talking about INF and military transparency things, not really new. We hear the same things we hear since weeks, just in a different tone if you ask me.
Putin says "there are mass violations of human rights being legitimised in #Ukraine" - Sky News
Putin says โ€œOur opinion is that what is going on in Donbas is genocide!โ€
Putin will most likely not accept the request to recognise the independence of DPR / LPR:
#LPR says that it opened fire on the positions of the Ukrainian Army after the death of an employee of the defense department [likely the shelling some accounts reporting in the Kirovsk area]
t.me/millnr/7109
Putin on #Ukraine joining #NATO: "We need to resolve this question now"
Western sources believe that on balance they have seen more reinforcements of Russian troops towards #Ukraine

Nap time ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป
#US President Joe Biden set to speak at 8:30PM GMT on #Ukraine / #Russia
Not much to report right now. Biden speaking in 30 minutes but i don't expect anything new from him. More of the same i guess.
British NLAWs have been transferred to all border posts in the Luhansk region
militaryland.net/ukraine/borderโ€ฆ
Feels weird but here is a live feed from #Kyiv
Confirmed video from Belgorod, train heading towards #Ukraine, reportedly today
Because i see some BREAKING tweets on that topic..it was already reported 24 hours ago:
Ukrainian journalist Yuri Butusov on Facebook:
"All Ukrainian defense forces put on combat readiness, all vacations cancelled. Army brigades being deployed to large cities"
facebook.com/butusov.yuriy
I read that as things that happened over the last days or weeks and that Ukrainian Army is ready in case of a Russian attack, not as a recent development.
I can not confirm this and from what i read in the answers, many people seem to be able to access these sites
Transponder switched off when approaching Ukrainian airspace
And it took off. You can see emergency lights in the live feed so i guess this was a medical evacuation.
So EVAC01 landed directly at a border crossing between Poland and Ukraine. Someone was loaded in from the Ukrainian side and it took off again. Maybe a medical emergency with a US official. In that case, all the best for this person.
I just don't understand what sense it makes to build a bridge there
Oh god it's so late already... good night!
