The Russian Defense Ministry claims that it allegedly continues to withdraw troops and equipment after the completion of the planned exercises.
The ministry said in a statement that "another military train with personnel and military equipment of the tank army units of the Western Military District has moved to a permanent deployment point in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast after the completion of the planned exercises."
"Transportation of tanks and armored tracked vehicles is carried by rail over a distance of about one thousand kilometers. Upon arrival at the location of the military unit, the servicemen will proceed to carry out maintenance of the combat equipment and its preparation for further planned combat training activities," the Russian Defense Ministry says.
