Elaborate trenches systems are being dug by Russian troops in Belgorod, near the border with Ukraine, Britain's Defense Ministry said.
Russia has started to expand its defense along its border with Ukraine amid apparent fears of invasion, Britain's Defense Ministry said on Wednesday.
Elaborate trenches systems are being dug by Russian troops in Belgorod, near the border with Ukraine, while the region's governor has announced that is establishing local"self-defense units." A cat looks down at a Ukrainian soldier resting in a trench on the front line with Russia-backed separatists near Krasnogorivka village, Donetsk region on February 28, 2020."Trench digging has been reported in Belgorod since at least April 2022, but the new constructions are probably more elaborate systems, designed to rebuff mechanized assault," the U.K. ministry said in its daily intelligence update on the war in Ukraine.
The ministry said there is a realistic possibility that the Russian authorities are promoting defensive preparations within internationally recognized Russian territory to"burnish patriotic feeling." "However, it probably illustrates some Russia decision-makers' genuine belief that there is a credible threat of invasion by Ukrainian forces."
