The Pentagon said Wednesday that it believes Russia has started to reposition a “small percentage” of its troops that had been arrayed against Ukraine’s capital Kyiv, but that none of them appear to be returning home.

Pentagon press secretary John Kirby issued an update after Russia announced Tuesday it will significantly scale back military operations near city.
