Does Russia’s ‘false flag’ attack indicate a Ukraine invasion in days? – An in-depth analysis

Emboldened Russia is commanding the world stage with outlandish manoeuvres.

From ‘false flag’ attacks inside Ukraine to an influx of troops on the Ukraine border.

Senior Western government figures believe these among other factors are signals Putin has decided to invade in the next matter of days.

The Sun talks to Russian and European politics expert, Richard Sakwa, for an in-depth look at the key developments in the unfolding crisis.

A report by Valerie Browne The West accuses Russia of ‘false flag’ attacks inside Ukraine as Biden expects the Kremlin to strike ‘within days’.

In one barrage, Russian-backed separatist forces hit a Ukrainian nursery school. Russia announced a partial pullback of troops on Tuesday.

Yet by Thursday US intelligence signalled a further 7,000 Russian troops massing at the Ukraine border. Adding to the 150,000 already stationed there.

A new military pontoon bridge has been established over the Pripyat River in Belarus and a new field hospital has been built near Ukraine indicating anything but de-escalation. Liz Truss says this could drag on for months. And Nato secretary-general Jens Stoltenberg said this volume of Russian troops stationed around Ukraine could become the new normal.

And Boris Johnson will travel to the Munich Conference on Saturday to deliver a speech. In desperate attempts for the West to talk down Russian aggression. Official stress there is still an opportunity for de-escalation, and for President Putin to step back and avoid a bloody and pointless war.

The United States has obtained intelligence that Russia may target prominent political opponents, anti-corruption activists, and Belarusian and Russian dissidents living in exile should it move forward with plans to invade Ukraine, as U.S. President Joe Biden warned on Thursday that the threat of a renewed Russian invasion of the country remains “very high” and could take place within the next several days. 

Four people familiar with U.S. intelligence said that Russia has drafted lists of Ukrainian political figures and other prominent individuals to be targeted for either arrest or assassination in the event of a Russian assault on Ukraine.

A fifth person, a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that the United States has been downgrading its intelligence classification regarding threats to specific groups within Ukraine to share this information with Ukrainian government officials and other partners in the region positioned to help.

Some of the “alternative” media coverage from the US is just about as bad.

 A lot of the preppers are pretty clueless
