Psaki points to State Dept. estimate in October of around 6,600 US citizens living in Ukraine. She reiterates the US does not do mass evacuations & repeats that US is encouraging American citizens in Ukraine to leave "now."

Filmed in Russia's Rostov region near the Ukrainian border, see how these Russian T-72B3 tanks manage to move smoothly on still muddy ground.
This is a good map by AFP. There are four concentration areas: Yelsk-Klintsy (EMD + 41 CAA), Kursk-Soloti (20th and 6th CAAs + 1 GTA), Millerovo-Rostov (8th CAA +49th CAA), Crimea (58th CAA + 11 AK, elements of 20th CAA).
Comment in a TankTok video says "Tanks being unloaded in a field near Taganrog". Just a comment but worth to watch:
Fuel for aviation on the move in Buturlinovka, Voronezh region
Russian helicopters in Kuban, reportedly today
Voronezh region
Train with a lot of fuel trucks in Oryol
Bryansk region

Today, at least 21 NATO and Swedish ISR aircraft flew collection sorties over Europe: USN P-8As (2 PL09x, 4 PK09x, 4 PS09x); USAF RC-135W (JAKE11), RC-135V (HOMER31), E-8C (REDEYE6); US Army RC-12Xs (YANK01, YANK02), ARTEMIS (BRIO68);
RAF P-8As (STGRY01, STGRY02), RC-135W (RRR7219); Swedish S102B (SVF623); NATO RQ-4D (UAVGH000).
Despite the regularity of the P-8A flights in the eastern Mediterranean, this is the first time I have included them. I arrived at this decision due to the recent Turkish activity, as well as the recent Russian activities at the port of Tartus.
We see again the return of (six!) P-8A activities in the Norwegian Sea. This possibly relates to movements from the Russian Navy's Northern Fleet. A lack of MPA activity over the Black Sea is interesting, due to recent arrival of Russian vessels.
A NATO RQ-4D departed from Sigonella AB, IT, and stopped tracking over Poland, suggesting the beginning of her ISR patterns. She finally returned back to Sigonella ~40 minutes ago. A USAF RQ-4 from Sigonella left ~2 hours ago, for a Black Sea/Ukraine sortie.

NATO Alliance Ground Surveillance Force RQ-4D Phoenix HALE UAV 04-2015 is currently heading north over Romania. Probably heading for a look at the Belarus border region before heading east over Kyiv to eastern Ukraine
Northrop Grumman RQ-4A Global Hawk directed towards eastern Ukraine

Many images are being posted online of Russian military movements along the Ukrainian border. We are working with the OSINT community to document, verify, and map this information. You can find our selected movement map here:
American build up of troops within Eastern Europe, amid rising tensions in the area. Units of the American 82nd Airborne Division continue to arrive to Poland.
