"Turchynov reported that Ukrainian intelligence observed an active concentration of Russian troops in the immediate vicinity to the Ukrainian-Russian border, which testifies to the preparation of Russian military and political leadership for large-scale provocations and offensive actions that can be unleashed at any time," the report reads. At the same time, the NSDC’s secretary noted that "the Ukrainian soldiers are ready to firmly respond to any provocations by the Russian occupying troops."
