We have satellites in space that track everything. Earlier on in the conflict the US tracked three armored vehicles move across Russia, and all the way into Ukraine. You just cannot hide this stuff from satellites any more.
Russia is directly responsible for all what is happening in Ukraine right now. Even the top two so called "Rebel" leaders are Russian, and both of them quit and (surprise!) returned to Russia yesterday.

Rochard as a former solder, you have to be smart enough to understand even with satellite technology like we have, they can only view so many things at one time.
While of course yes we can spot these troop movements, we can't watch them all 100% of the time. The individual surveillance of this type is usually done by drones, something the US doesn't have in place at this point.
Even Frodo was able to sneak past the Eye of Mordor..
