American Troops at Kyiv Embassy Are in 'Harm's Way'

The revelation of a "small U.S. military presence" stationed at the Kyiv embassy is reminiscent of the special "advisers" sent to Vietnam in what proved to be the "opening act" to America's lengthy involvement in that conflict, military analysts say.

The stunning admission from the White House came after a leaked document disclosed that a dozen Americans are part of the 100 Western special force troops operating in Ukraine as the country battles Russia's invasion.
