https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/3/28/uk-says-russian-mercenaries-to-be-deployed-eastern-ukraine-liveblogUS official warns any Russian troop movement ‘not a withdrawal’
Any movement of Russian forces from around Kyiv would constitute a “redeployment, not a withdrawal”, a US official has said after Russia promised to scale down military operations near the Ukrainian capital.
“We believe any movement of Russian forces from around kyiv is a redeployment, not a withdrawal. And the world should be prepared for continued major offensives against other areas of Ukraine,” the official said, adding: “They are shifting gears … No one should mistake that for Russia ending the conflict.”
