Ukraine/Russland/NATO – der Sammler am 22. Juni 2022
Im andauernden russischen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine haben nach britischer Einschätzung beide Seiten hohe Verluste und zunehmend Probleme, neue Truppen an die Front zu bringen: On both sides, the ability to generate and deploy reserve units to the front is likely becoming increasingly critical to the outcome of the war. Der Sammler am 22. Juni 2022:
• Das britische Intel Update:
Heavy shelling continues as Russia pushes to envelop the Sieverodonetsk area via Izium in the north and Popasna in the south. Russia is highly likely preparing to attempt to deploy a large number of reserve units to the Donbas.
The Russian authorities have not released the overall number of military casualties in Ukraine since 25 March.
However, the self-declared Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) publishes casualty figures for DPR forces. As of 16 June, the DPR acknowledged 2128 military personnel killed in action, and 8897 wounded, since the start of 2022.
The DPR casualty rate is equivalent to around 55 per cent of its original force, which highlights the extraordinary attrition Russian and pro-Russian forces are suffering in the Donbas.
It is highly likely that DPR forces are equipped with outdated weapons and equipment. On both sides, the ability to generate and deploy reserve units to the front is likely becoming increasingly critical to the outcome of the war.

• Und auch diese Entwicklung im Baltikum gehört dazu – aus Estland, berichtet von Stars&Stripes:
A rare intrusion into Estonian airspace by a Russian Mi-8 attack helicopter has prompted the latest salvo of charges that Moscow is ratcheting up tensions in the Baltic region one week ahead of a major NATO security summit. (…)
The helicopter, assigned to a Russian border guard unit, was flying with its transponders turned off and lingered in Estonian airspace Saturday evening for nearly two minutes, the Estonian Defense Ministry said in a statement Tuesday.
“This is the picture of the threat, how we see the Russian threat,” Kusti Salm, a ministry official, told local reporters Tuesday. “It has never been as serious as it is now.”
• … und ebenfalls aus Estland, von Associated Press:
French armed forces conducted a surprise military exercise in Estonia, deploying more than 100 paratroopers in the Baltic country that neighbors Russia, the French defense ministry said Wednesday.
The airborne operation conducted on Tuesday night and dubbed Thunder Lynx „enabled, at very short notice, the dropping of about 100 paratroopers“ from France’s 11th Airborne Brigade „over an area secured by Estonian soldiers,“ the statement said.
The hastily organized exercise in Estonia, a NATO ally, was executed as an act of „strategic solidarity“ amid Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Nach mittlerweile 136 M-777 (108 + 18, nachgeschoben) 12 PzH 2000 und 72 (POL) AHS Krab,
jetzt HIMARS.
@oleksiireznikov (Ukraine government official):
HIMARS have arrived to Ukraine.
Thank you to my 🇺🇲 colleague and friend @SecDef Lloyd J. Austin III for these powerful tools!
Summer will be hot for russian occupiers. And the last one for some of them.
Der artilleristischen Feuerkraft des UKR Heeres wird es helfen.
Wo wird der Artillerieschwerpunkt liegen? Kann @PzHaub 2000 Aussagen dazu treffen?
Zu 15:02 Uhr: 126 M-777, Pardon.
Noch andere Quellen dazu?
WithUkraine 24/7 @With__Ukraine
🇩🇪 Ukraine’s Ambassador to #Germany, Andriy Melnyk, said that #Ukraine had signed a contract to supply the German IRIS-T air defense system. A total of 10 are planned to be purchased.
Neben Artillerieaufbau jetzt auch Luftverteidigung im Nah/Nächstbereich?

@KPK
Das ist von aussen schwer zu beurteilen. Vermutlich unverändert auf unmittelbarer Feuerunterstützung durch BrigArt einerseits und der Bekämpfung der RUS Art andernseits. Spannend ist für mich, auf welcher Ebene die PzH2000 und auch die bisher gelieferten 18 Krab eingesetzt werden, als BigArt oder aufgrund der Reichweite eher auf Div/Korpsebene.
