In the past ten days or so, Russian troop build-up accelerated, and Russian forces have advanced closer to the border with Ukraine, from where they could launch military action very quickly, according to Sullivan. It is very likely “that there will be a major military action very soon”. Sullivan again warned that an invasion of Ukraine could begin at any time.
“Should there be a military invasion of Ukraine by Russia, it will probably be accompanied by a massive use of rockets and bombs begin,” Sullivan said. “These are never as precise as an army would like, and we don’t even know how precise the Russian army would like them to be.” So innocent civilians could be killed, regardless of their nationality. The deployment of ground troops moving across the Ukrainian border would probably follow. Again, innocent civilians could be caught in the crossfire or trapped in places. That is why the US government is so urgently calling on American citizens to Departure from Ukraine on.
