US Says The Kremlin Has Ordered Final Preparations For An Invasion Of Ukraine

BBC: US sounds fresh alarm over Ukraine invasion fears

The US secretary of state has said the extension of Russian military drills in Belarus has made him more worried about an imminent invasion of Ukraine.

Antony Blinken said Moscow's decision to keep about 30,000 troops in Belarus, next to Ukraine, amid raised tension in eastern Ukraine, suggests this.

His warning came as unidentified US intelligence sources said Russian commanders have been ordered to invade.
