Update from Ukraine | Ukraine Clears the Sky | Ruzzian Aviation is Doomed
Video Summary
We’re seeing many reports of Russian air defense systems being destroyed, and their crew abandoning their vehicles and fleeing. Even when the drones target moving targets, the Russian crews are unable to respond effectively. It’s clear that Ukraine is focused on taking out Russia’s air defense systems.
The situation in the skies is concerning, with Russia using its military aviation to drop gliding bombs, causing significant damage to Ukrainian positions. In recent days, they’ve intensified their attacks, leading to significant losses for the Ukrainian Army. To address this, the White House has been discussing permission for Ukraine to use attack missiles against Russian military airfields, but so far, we’re still waiting for a decision.
The UK has given the green light for Ukraine to use their cruise missiles, with a range sufficient to target Russian military airfields. However, there’s a concern that Ukraine may not have the capability to use these missiles effectively to take out multiple targets at once, which is why the UK’s offer is more promising.
In the meantime, Russia is trying to use its remaining air power to hit Ukrainian positions. On the ground, Ukrainian forces are struggling to make progress, despite Russia’s loss of air support. The situation near New York village is concerning, with Russia expanding its control and limiting Ukraine’s ability to counterattack.
As for Russia’s army, it’s reportedly suffering significant losses, with over 1,000 soldiers per day being disabled or killed. Despite this, Russia is still able to find new recruits, largely due to poverty and promises of good pay. The quality of these recruits is often low, leading to high losses.
In other news, NATO officials estimate that Russia can mobilize 30,000 troops per month, but this comes at a significant cost, with losses ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 soldiers per day. Meanwhile, Ukraine is receiving military advice from the United States, which is expected to be instrumental in helping Ukraine turn the tide of the war.
