CNN on Thursday reported that tanks and other armoured vehicles joined Ukraine through a border crossing with Belarus. The clip was taken at the Senkivka, Ukraine crossing with Veselovka, Belarus, shot around 6:48 a.m. local time.
The US Department of Defense is trailing the noted incursion of troops from Belarus in Ukraine, a US defence official announced Thursday.
It was not evident if the troops were only Russian or also Belarusian, the source announced. Ukraine was attacked through multiple borders, the Ukrainian state border service announced early Thursday.
“At about 5:00 a.m., the state border of Ukraine in the area with the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus was ambushed by Russian troops assisted by Belarus,” the service said.
It added that attacks are being accomplished in Luhansk, Sumy, Kharkiv, Chernihiv and Zhytomyr regions – regions on the eastern and northern borders of Ukraine. The attacks are targeting border units, border patrols and checkpoints using artillery, huge equipment and small arms, the border service let out.
