DEVELOPING: Ukraine puts troops on high alert as tension grows with Russia

The “War Drums” keep pounding louder and louder and now reports are indicating that Ukrainian troops along the de facto border with Crimea in the east have been put on high alert. The reason follows accusations by Moscow on Wednesday that Kiev was carrying out armed incursions into Crimea.

Excerpt From BBC News:
Ukraine’s envoy to the UN asked Russia to provide evidence of the claims, and said some 40,000 Russian troops were massed on the Crimea-Ukraine border. His Russian counterpart told the UN Security Council of Moscow’s “concern and outrage” at the alleged incursions. Crimea was annexed by Russia in 2014 after an unrecognised referendum.
