An American news report said that satellites had detected what appeared to be a secret bridge over a river in Belarusian territory near Ukraine.
The US news website thedailybeast reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin says he has ordered a partial withdrawal of forces, but satellite images provide a picture of the massive military buildup that threatens Ukraine.
He explained that pictures taken by a commercial photography company show that Moscow built a pontoon bridge, on Tuesday, on the Pripyat River, close to the Russian-Belarus border.
The bridge is located near the exclusion zone around the Chernobyl reactor, which exploded in 1986.
This development comes at a time when the Ukrainian and NATO forces are on high alert, amid conflicting signals about strengthening the Russian buildup on Ukraine's borders.
