Hundreds of military vehicles, including infantry support units and combat helicopters and artillery, are being sent by Russia to eastern Ukraine, the US Pentagon said.
The deployment of forces in the Donbass region is also evident from Maxar Technologies satellite imagery showing the convoy of Russian forces moving towards the area.
A senior Pentagon official claimed that the convoy is several miles long, as the forces are intended to support infantry troops and helicopter attacks.
According to the Pentagon, the Russians are sending more artillery forces southwest of Donetsk to the Donbass region, where it said they want to invest.
The next phase of the war will be much more aggressive from Russian combat troops, not just the separatists, officials said.
