The US has accused Russia of undermining a ceasefire in Ukraine after reports of Russian troops and military hardware entering the country, reports GHN based on BBC.
The US envoy to the UN, Samantha Power, also accused Russia of pursuing war in Ukraine while talking peace.
Russia's deputy ambassador to the UN, Alexander Pankin, dismissed the allegations as propaganda.
More than 4,000 people have died in the conflict between Ukraine's military and pro-Russian rebels in the east.
Nearly a million people have been driven from their homes since the fighting started in April.
The violence has continued despite a ceasefire deal struck in the Belarusian capital, Minsk, in September, with both sides accusing each other of violations.
Relations between Russia and the West are at their lowest ebb since the Cold War as a result of the conflict.
The US called a meeting of the UN Security Council on Wednesday after Nato claimed Russia was sending troops, artillery and air defence systems across the border into Ukraine.
"The pattern is clear," Ms Power told the meeting. "Where Russia has made commitments it has failed to meet them."
"Russia has negotiated a peace plan and then systematically undermined it at every step. It talks of peace but it keeps fuelling war."
However, Mr Pankin said the Nato claims "do not reflect the situation on the ground". He accused security council members of a "foray into propaganda".
Meanwhile, Jens Toyber-Frandzen, the UN assistant secretary-general for political affairs, also warned of "a return to full-scale fighting".
