· Feb 11, 2022 · NottheBee.com

It's not headlining the news 24/7 like it was a few weeks ago, but rest assured the Russia-Ukraine situation has not gone away and is not calming down:

Satellite images recently captured by Maxar Technologies show that Russia is continuing to deploy troops and military equipment, likely including field hospitals, near Ukraine's borders in Crimea, Belarus and western Russia...

Although Russia denied plans to invade, it has amassed over 100,000 troops and several military vehicles, including tanks, troop transports and fighter jets, near Ukraine's northern, southern and eastern borders.

The United States, meanwhile, is ramping up its warnings on the imminence of a potential invasion:

Any Americans still in Ukraine should leave "immediately," the White House said Friday, as it warned that Russia could potentially launch an invasion of the country "any day now" — possibly even during the Olympics.

"Any American in Ukraine should leave as soon as possible, and in any event in the next 24 to 48 hours," President Joe Biden's national security advisor, Jake Sullivan, said during a press briefing.

Sullivan noted that the U.S. is not certain that Russian President Vladimir Putin has made a final decision to invade Ukraine. But "it may well happen soon," he said.

Yeah if I'm in Ukraine right now I am dipping out by any means necessary.

Hold on to your seats, the shoe could drop any minute now.
