The tensions between Russia and Ukraine are only soaring amid claims that Vladimir Putin might invade Ukraine. New satellite images acquired by Maxar Technologies show how Russia is building its military in Belarus, that borders Ukraine. Maxar Technologies said it had collected images of military hardware near Yelsk, Rechitsa and Luninets. All locations are within around 50 kilometres from the Ukrainian border. Satellite images showed what Maxar Technologies identified as 15 Su-25 ground attack aircrafts and S-400 air defense system at Luninets airfield, as well as SS26 Iskander missiles and multiple rocket launchers near Yelsk. Though Russia and Belarus are yet to respond to this development, they claim that the build-up is nothing but preparations for their joint drills to be held from February 20.
