The commander of the ATO troops in Europe, Philip Breedlove, speaking at a meeting of the NATO military committee, confirmed the information about the presence of Russian troops and weapons on the territory of Eastern Ukraine. This was reported by the agency “UNIAN».

“The situation in Ukraine is not good. The fighting intensified. But now I cannot confirm the figures cited by President Poroshenko (9 thousand Russian military - ed.). But we see that Russian-backed forces have renewed capabilities to put pressure on Ukrainian troops. This is concerning,” Breedlove said.

He also clarified that by "updated capabilities" he means Russian air defense systems and electronic military systems, writes AmericaRu.com
