Russian defence ministry: false reports about troop movements a 'provocation' -RBC
Russia's defence ministry on Monday said the publication of what it called false information about a regrouping of Russian troops in Ukraine was a provocation, the RBC news outlet reported.
Two Russian state news agencies had earlier published alerts saying Moscow was moving troops to "more favourable positions" east of the Dnipro River in Ukraine, only to withdraw the information minutes later.
"The transmission of a false report about the 'regrouping' of troops in the Dnipro area, allegedly on behalf of the Russian defence ministry's press centre, is a provocation," RBC quoted the ministry as saying.
