Ukraine/Russland/NATO – der Sammler am 9. Mai 2022

Veröffentlicht am von

Der heutige 9. Mai steht ganz im Zeichen der Moskauer Parade(n) zum Jahrestag des Sieges über Nazi-Deutschland – und dazu gehören auch die Aussagen, die Russlands Präsident Wladimir Putin zum anhaltenden russischen Angriffskrieg auf die Ukraine gemacht hat. Der Sammler am 9. Mai 2022:

• Das britische Intel Update:

At the onset of its invasion of Ukraine, Russia publicly promoted its ability to conduct surgical strikes and limit collateral damage. It stated that Ukrainian cities would therefore be safe from bombardment.
However, as the conflict continues beyond Russian pre-war expectations, Russia’s stockpile of precision-guided munitions has likely been heavily depleted.
This has forced the use of readily available but ageing munitions that are less reliable, less accurate and more easily intercepted. Russia will likely struggle to replace the precision weaponry it has already expended.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has revealed shortcomings in its ability to conduct precision strikes at scale. Russia has subjected Ukraine’s towns and cities to intense and indiscriminate bombardments with little or no regard for civilian casualties.

• Das Morgenbriefing des ukrainischen Generalstabs:

• Die Webseite des russischen Verteidigungsministeriums ist weiterhin nicht zugänglich; die russischen Briefings werden nachgetragen, sobald verfügbar.

• In seiner Rede vor Beginn der Militärparade auf dem Roten Platz in Moskau hat Putin immer wieder die Brücke geschlagen zwischen dem Kampf gegen die Nazis im Zweiten Weltkrieg und dem aktuellen russischen Angriffskrieg: In beiden Fällen, sinngemäß, habe eine Bedrohung Russlands abgewendet werden müssen. In der Ukraine habe es durch das aggressive Vorgehen der NATO eine ständig wachsende Gefahr des Angriffs auf Russland gegeben, bis hin zur nuklearen Bewaffnung der Ukraine.

Wenn ich nichts übersehen habe: zu Folgen, Ausweitungen des aktuellen Kriegs hat sich der russische Präsident nicht geäußert. Insbesondere die zuvor umlaufende Befürchtung, er könne eine (Teil)Mobilmachung und/oder die Einberufung von Reservisten bekannt geben, zudem die Ausweitung von einer Speziellen Militäroperation zu einem Krieg, hat sich zumindest mit dieser Rede nicht bewahrheiten.

(Der Redetext zum Nachlesen hier.)

• Ein interessanter (merkwürdiger?) Punkt: Es gibt Meldungen, dass die sonst übliche Parade von Luftfahrzeugen, also Kampfjets und Hubschrauber, diesmal unterbleibt – angeblich des Wetters wegen. In der TV-Übertragung aus Moskau sieht es allerdings gut aus. Evtl. gibt’s dazu noch mehr Klarheit.

On May 7, on direct orders from Zelensky, the Ukrainian General Staff, with the direct involvement of advisers from the USA and Britain, planned a major provocation to seize Zmeiny Island.
Over the past two days, the Kiev regime has made several desperate attempts to land air and sea assaults on Zmeiny Island, which is important for controlling the northwestern part of the Black Sea.
The Ukrainian provocation was thwarted as a result of the competent actions of a Russian Armed Forces unit on the island. The enemy suffered heavy losses.
