Apparently, the field is filled with cars.

The Washington Post published a new satellite image of the Wagner base near Asipovichy. The image was taken by Maxar Technologies and Umbra. According to Maxar Senior Director Stephen Wood, it shows that “dozens, if not hundreds, of vehicles and equipment have recently arrived at the facility.”

The changes are visible even when comparing the image published today with the image of July 19 by Planet, not to mention the earlier images of July 14 and July 16.

For example, in today’s image, we can see that the field (the central part) is already completely filled with some objects. The quality of the image doesn’t allow seeing clearly, but with a high probability we can say that these are cars, which occupied only half of the green area on July 19, and now – almost all of it. At the same time, the conditional truck parking spot, which is located to the left of the field, seems to have become smaller. 

We note that the image shows not the whole camp in Tsel village, but only its south-western part.
