Tensions have flared in the east of Ukraine all day, with the head of the Russian backed separatist region announcing a mass evacuation in response to what he said was aggression from Ukraine.

The Ukrainian government tonight said the claims are "divorced from reality" and that Russia is conducting a campaign to "disseminate massive disinformation."

The purpose? To give it a pretext, Kyiv says for an invasion with a new total of about 190,000 Russian and Belarusian troops based on the border with Ukraine.
