Ukraine/Russland/NATO – der Sammler am 24. April 2022

Der russische Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine dauert nun zwei Monate an. Die russischen Streitkräfte erzielen in ihrem Schwerpunkt Ostukraine und Donbass weiterhin nur geringe Geländegewinne, wenn überhaupt. Nach ukrainischer Darstellung werden auf russischem Territorium bei Belgorod zunehmend Iskander-Mittelstreckenrakten stationiert, die bis weit in die Unkraine hinein angreifen können. Der Sammler am 24. April 2022:

• Das britische Intel Update:

Ukraine has repelled numerous Russian assaults along the line of contact in the Donbas this week.
Despite Russia making some territorial gains, Ukrainian resistance has been strong across all axes and inflicted significant cost on Russian forces.
Poor Russian morale and limited time to reconstitute, re-equip and reorganise forces from prior offensives are likely hindering Russian combat effectiveness.
