Ukraine Mobilizes Civilians For War, Russia Redeploys Lethal Weapons Along The Border

After information emerged, that NATO and the united states were planning to carry out attacks on russian troops stationed along the ukrainian border. Reportedly russia is intensively strengthening its air defense on the border with ukraine. On the other hand, ukraine is training its civilians. The movement's aim is to defend against a potential russian invasion in which western intelligence has openly said that russia will invade the country in late january.

After information appeared that NATO and the united states are planning to attack russian troops stationed along the ukrainian border, it became known that russia was actively building up its air defense. Building a multi-level echelon defense. According to russian media at the moment air defense systems of various types have been deployed and are still being transferred to the border with ukraine.

As reported the british RC-135 Rivet Joint intelligence gathering plane has been monitoring russian troops around crimea and a french warship is now stationed at the odessa. Russian officials are reportedly angered by the deployment and have publicly said that NATO's presence near its doorstep poses a threat to russia's security environment.

Russian internet edition Avia reported that S-300 and S-400 air defense systems as well as dozen Duck M Complexes are being transferred to Crimea and Russia's Brian's region. The report also noted that there are no training grounds in this area. Which testifies to the measures taken by russia due to the high level of threat from nato. In recent months, NATO has strengthened its presence around ukraine. Fearing that moscow will launch a full-scale invasion by late january next year.

The ukraine is training its civilians to defend against russian invasion. in a forested area just outside Ukraine's Capital Kiev, mock russian troops ambush camouflage clad army reservists. The would-be ukrainian soldiers who include architects and researchers in their ranks, return fire with replica Kalashnikovs as imitation smoke grenades explode around them.

"I believe that every person in this country should know what to do, if the enemy invades their country," Daniel Lahren a 19 year old university student told AFP during a short break from the exercises. Lauren was one of about 50 ukrainian civilians who drove from kiev to an abandoned soviet era asphalt plant on a recent weekend afternoon to train for how to defend their country in the event of a russian invasion.

Dozens of civilians have been joining ukraine's army reserves in recent months, as fears have mounted that russia which kiev says has massed around 100,000 troops on its side of the border is plotting to launch a large-scale attack. The ukraine's army which totals 215,000 soldiers has been battling a moscow-backed insurgency in two breakaway regions since 2014 in a long simmering conflict that has claimed over 13,000 lives. While moscow has denied it is planning an invasion, russian president vladimir putin has not excluded a military response should the u.s led nato alliance which ukraine wants to join expand eastward.

Thedefensepost.com reported that the ukrainian reservists who have ballooned to about 100,000 members have been learning how to handle weapons, how to behave in a battle environment and how to defend their cities from russian attack.

Yusuke, a 51 year old doctor believes that the russian army is far superior to ukraine's and the risk of a full-scale invasion is high enough to have joined the reserves. only if everyone is ready to defend our land then there will be a chance, she said.

Since joining up in april when russia first deployed around one hundred thousand troops on ukraine's border, yusuke has trained for several hours every saturday in providing tactical medicine, shooting automatic rifles and deploying checkpoints. While the army provided her with a military uniform she spent her own money on a helmet bulletproof jacket and tactical goggles. The trainees are part of reservist battalions set up to protect kiev in the event of an attack on ukraine's largest city. 

One battalion commander Yadam Ozirni said that after mobilizing at a rendezvous point the reservists will get to work protecting administrative buildings and critical infrastructure as well as helping residents evacuate. These people must arrive receive weapons and carry out command assignments defend their home, Ozirni told AFP.

Denis Semirog Orlick one of the most experienced reservists in the unit said he is ready to counter a real offensive. I have been living for the eighth year with the thought that until we give russia a good blow in the face. They will not leave us alone, i clearly understand that i am a service man. I might be called up and i must act fully as a service man," the 46 year old architect told AFP.
