U.S. intelligence has received information saying Russian military commanders have been given orders to proceed with an invasion of Ukraine, CBS News reported on Sunday.
“They’re doing everything that American commanders would do once they got the order to proceed,” the network’s national security correspondent, David Martin, said while appearing on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
“The intelligence says that Russian troops have actually received orders now to proceed with the invasion. So not only are they moving up closer and closer to the border and into these attack positions, but the commanders on the ground are making specific plans for how they would maneuver in their sector of the battlefield,” said Martin.

Seems like a solid hunch. State TV experts/propagandists specifically discussed that date on state TV, with a wink and a nod (Wednesday, February 23). https://t.co/IvRRdtU3Pu

As predicted by the US and other allies, the Russians are blowing up buildings in occupied Eastern Ukraine and blaming the Ukrainians in order to justify a full scale invasion. Exactly the same playbook as Georgia in 2008. This is really happening https://t.co/nBMe2kbF1g
