    I wouldnā€™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 donā€™t have a subscription to this filthy newspaper, but basically itā€™s all about Russia pulling together 100,000 soldiers to the front. Here is more information about it:

    The title ā€œUkraine sounds the alarmā€ is not correct anyway, because Ukraine does not sound the alarm. I couldnā€™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 ā€œcounter-offensiveā€ 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 Ukraineā€™s offensive dead in its tracks. Then they will be able to say ā€œlook, Russia tried an even bigger attack than we did and they got even less farā€. And suddenly their failure is excused and they even get a ā€œwinā€ in the eyes of the gullible idiots who still listen to the western mainstream mediaā€™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.
