Putin orders forces in the Urals on combat alert
Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered military forces in central Russia on combat alert.
     
Russian state news agencies on Saturday quoted Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu as saying that the alert in the central military district, which encompasses the Volga region and the Ural mountains but not western Russia, will last until next Saturday.
     
The one-week drill will include 65,000 troops, according to head of Russian General Staff Gen. Valery Gerasimov.
     
NATO said earlier this week that Russia has resumed a military build-up on the border with Ukraine where pro-Russian separatists have been fighting government forces for weeks in a conflict that has left about 300 people dead and displaced over 34,000.
