"A special train with 15 passenger cars passed through Smolensk station in the direction of Belarus," the Ukrainska Pravda portal quoted independent channel Belaruski Hajun as saying. Hajun added that the train arrived at Belarus’ Vitebsk station.

The previous such transport with about 800 people took place on the night of Thursday to Friday, thus at least 1,400 to 1,600 Russian soldiers have potentially arrived in Vitebsk in the past three days.

"Additional confirmation of this fact is that on the evening of January 6, soldiers of the armed forces of the Russian Federation were seen in various places in the city, walking in groups of several people and visiting stores," Hajun added.
