-snip- new satellite imagery revealed a huge convoy of Russian armour and artillery heading towards the under-siege areas of eastern Ukraine as both sides gear up for a brutal new phase of the war.
The images, taken by Maxar technologies late Friday and released early this morning, showed the eight-mile long convoy of weaponry snaking through the town of Velykyi Burluk.
The convoy was heading south through an arc of Russian-controlled territory in eastern Ukraine according to analysts, and is believed to be destined for the frontlines in the regions of Luhansk and Donetsk.
Russian forces withdrew from key positions around Kyiv last week in the face of bitter resistance from Ukraine's armed forces, and are thought to be regrouping for a major new offensive in the Donbas.
But the losses inflicted by Ukraine on Russia's army are so great that the Kremlin has resorted to recruiting retired military personnel to make up the numbers, according to the UK's Ministry of Defence (MoD).
The intelligence suggests that Vladimir Putin is turning to personnel who were discharged from military service as early as 2012 to replace his fallen soldiers, with Ukraine's armed forces putting the Russian death toll at close to 20,000.

Have we seen any live action on the 2,000 Ukrainian tanks destroyed by Russia?
Enquiring minds….
Are you a child, or just a Zelensky simp rooting for the left with moronic presentation of propaganda?
Facts are stubborn things.
You can make any kind of lame excuses for the Russians’ disastrous performance you want, but the invincible fact that reigns supreme is the fact that every day that passes adds to the number of days that the Russians have failed to win a contest that they were supposed to win in a few days.
The Number of the Day is now 45.
They need to destroy more than one.
WTF are you talking about?
Both Putin and Zelensky are scumbag criminal dictators; I root for no one there. You asked for a pic; I provided the article’s video URL. What more do you want?
Probable answer: Democrats like what he is doing.
