The Russian Federation partially withdrew its Army from the border with Ukraine after exercises in the Western Military District.
The commander of the troops, Alexander Zhuravlev, said that the planned check of combat readiness in the Western Military District was completed, but the planned combat training activities at the training grounds continue.
“There is a whole range of measures ahead, including bilateral tactical exercises involving aviation and air defense systems,” he said.
The check of combat readiness in the Western Military District of the Russian Federation began on January 25, more than 1 000 military personnel of the First Tank Army and about 100 units of military equipment were involved in it.
