An official in the Russian military general staff said the NATO satellite photographs were taken in August 2013, state-run news agency RIA reported.
“These photographs that were distributed by NATO depict units of Russian forces of the Southern Military District which conducted various exercises last summer, some of them near the border with Ukraine,” RIA quoted what it said was a high-level official in the Russian general staff as saying.
A NATO official responded that the images were from March and April this year and each image showed the date it was taken.
