The Pentagon is anticipating that Russia will invade the two separatist regions of Ukraine’s Donbas territory tonight, following Russian president Vladimir Putin’s recognition of their independence Monday.
Russian forces are expected to move into the two separatist territories, which call themselves the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) and the Luhansk People’s Republic (LPR) Monday evening, Jennifer Griffin of Fox News reported.
Since Putin’s announcement and signing ceremony, unconfirmed footage has circulated on Twitter depicting a convoy of buses entering Donetsk. It is not yet clear what is being transported across the border into Ukraine.
