    I wouldn’t take the Bild newspaper so seriously. The title is lurid and is probably meant to tempt people to get a subscription to Bild Plus. I don’t have a subscription to this filthy newspaper, but basically it’s all about Russia pulling together 100,000 soldiers to the front. Here is more information about it:

    The title “Ukraine sounds the alarm” is not correct anyway, because Ukraine does not sound the alarm. I couldn’t find anything about it. Taking BILD seriously is like taking The Sun seriously.

      This. The article is sensationalist garbage. They need a propaganda win after the failure of their big “counter-offensive” so now they will pretend like Russia was planning this huge attack but heroic Ukraine foiled their plans and stopped them just like Russia stopped Ukraine’s offensive dead in its tracks. Then they will be able to say “look, Russia tried an even bigger attack than we did and they got even less far”. And suddenly their failure is excused and they even get a “win” in the eyes of the gullible idiots who still listen to the western mainstream media’s coverage of this conflict.

      I came here to say Bild is a tabloid. One of the few German language magazines I have been able to get my hands on in America, though, which is cool.
