Ukraine/Russland/NATO – der Sammler am 28. Oktober 2022
Zum andauernden russischen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine der Sammler am 28. Oktober 2022:
• In der offiziellen Liste der deutschen Waffenlieferungen für die Ukraine hatte es eine auffällige Veränderung gegeben: Während am 18. Oktober der Posten 255 Schuss Vulcano Artilleriemunition 155 mm als Zusage für eine Lieferung der Industrie noch enthalten war, fehlt diese Präzisionsmunition in der – bislang letzten – Liste vom 26. Oktober. Auf Nachfrage die Erläuterung des Bundespresseamtes dazu:
In der am 26.10. aktualisierten Fassung der Liste wurde ein Posten von „6.100 Schuss Artilleriemunition 155 mm*“ neu aufgenommen. Dabei wurde von Ausweisung konkreter Munitionstypen abgesehen. Die Lieferung von Vulcano 155mm Munition ist weiterhin in Vorbereitung und in dem vorgenannten Posten enthalten.
(Danke für den Leserhinweis auf die fehlende Nennung der Vulcano-Munition)
• Die USA kündigten am Freitagabend weitere Waffenlieferungen an die Ukraine an (darunter auch, in der US-Liste gesondert ausgewiesen, 500 Schuss Präzisionsmunition 155mm für die Artillerie):
Today, the Department of Defense (DoD) announces the authorization of a Presidential Drawdown of security assistance valued at up to $275 million to meet Ukraine’s critical security and defense needs. This authorization is the Biden Administration’s twenty-fourth drawdown of equipment from DoD inventories for Ukraine since August 2021.
Capabilities in this package include:
Additional ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS);
500 precision-guided 155mm artillery rounds;
2,000 155mm rounds of Remote Anti-Armor Mine (RAAM) Systems;
More than 1,300 anti-armor systems;
125 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWVs);
Small arms and more than 2,750,000 rounds of small arms ammunition; and
Four satellite communications antennas.
In total, the United States has committed more than $18.5 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since January 2021, including approximately $17.9 billion since the beginning of Russia’s unprovoked and brutal invasion on February 24, 2022. Air defense capabilities have been, and will continue to be, a U.S. priority for Ukraine. As Secretary Austin said, the two initial NASAMS that the United States has committed to providing will be ready for delivery to Ukraine early next month and the United States is working with our Allies to transfer air defense systems of their own to Ukraine.
Interessant ist dabei, neben der Artilleriemunition, die Erwähnung von Satellitenantennen – nach Angaben von US-Kollegen erstmals in diesem Zusammenhang und vielleicht auch im Zusammenhang zu sehen mit den Befürchtungen, die Aussagen von Tesla/Twitter/Starlink-Besitzer Elon Musk ausgelöst haben: sein Satellitensystem Starlink ist von entscheidender Bedeutung für die Kommunikation in der Ukraine, sowohl zivil wie militärisch.
• Das britische Intel Update:
Russia has likely augmented some of its units west of the Dnipro River with mobilised reservists. However, this is from an extremely low level of manning.
In September 2022, Russian officers described companies in the Kherson sector as consisting of between six and eight men each. Companies should deploy with around 100 personnel.
In the last six weeks there has been a clear move from Russian ground forces to transition to a long-term, defensive posture on most areas of the front line in Ukraine.
This is likely due to a more realistic assessment that the severely undermanned, poorly trained force in Ukraine is currently only capable of defensive operations.
Even if Russia succeeds in consolidating long-term defensive lines in Ukraine, its operational design will remain vulnerable.
To regain the initiative, it will need to regenerate higher quality, mobile forces which are capable of dynamically countering Ukrainian breakthroughs and conducting their own large-scale offensive operations.
• Das Morgenbriefing des ukrainischen Generalstabs:
The operational update regarding the russian invasion on 06.00, on October 28, 2022
The two-hundred-forty-seventh (247) day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to a russian military large-scale invasion continues.
The enemy is trying to hold the temporarily captured territories, concentrates efforts on restraining the actions of the Defense Forces in certain directions, while at the same time not stopping offensive operations in the Bakhmut and Avdiivka directions.
During the day, units of the Defense Forces repelled the attacks of the occupiers in the areas of populated areas: Andriivka, Bilohorivka, Luhansk oblast; Bakhmut, Bakhmutske, Vremivka, Zelenopillya, Soledar, Mayorsk, Maryinka, Nevelske, Novobakhmutivka, Pervomaiske, Yakovlivka of the Donetsk oblast.
The enemy is shelling the positions of our troops along the line of contact, carrying out fortification equipment of positions in certain directions, in particular, on the left bank of the Dnipro River, actively conducting aerial reconnaissance.
Violating the norms of International Humanitarian Law, the laws and customs of war, it continues to strike critical infrastructure and the homes of the civilian population.
During the day, the enemy launched fifteen air strikes and one missile attack, carried out more than forty MLRS attacks. The settlements of Bilohirka, Nova Kamianka, Novohredneve in the Kherson oblast, Stepove in the Zaporizhzhia oblast, and Maryinka and Pavlivka in the Donetsk oblast were affected by this.
In the Volyn and Polissya directions, the situation remains without significant changes. The republic of belarus continues to support the armed aggression of the russian federation against Ukraine, providing its territory, airspace and infrastructure. There is still a threat of missile and air strikes, including the use of attack UAVs.
The enemy shelled in other directions:
in the Siversky and Slobozhansk directions – from the territory of the russian federation, using artillery of various types, in the areas of the settlements of Boyaro-Lezhachi, Vodolahi, Hirky, Pysarivka and Ryzhivka of the Sumy oblast and Vilkhuvatka, Vovchansk, Okhrimivka and Staritsa of the Kharkiv oblast;
in the Kupyansk and Lyman directions – from tanks, mortars, barrel and jet artillery, in the areas of Druzhelyubivka and Petro-Ivanivka settlements of the Kharkiv oblast; Zarichne, Yampolivka of the Donetsk oblast and Makiivka and Nevsky in the Luhansk oblast;
in the Bakhmut direction – from tanks and artillery of various calibers, in the areas of the settlements of Bakhmut, Bakhmutske, Verkhnyokamianske, Opytne, Rozdolivka, Soledar, Mayorsk and Yakovlivka;
in the Avdiivka direction, the enemy fired mortars, barrel and jet artillery near Avdiivka, Krasnohorivka, Maryinka, Nevelske, Novomykhailivka, and Pervomaiske in the Donetsk oblast.
On the Novopavlivsky and Zaporizhzhia directions, the enemy carried out artillery fire in the areas of 15 settlements. Among them are Bilohirya, Hulyaipole, Dorozhnyanka, Zaporizhzhia oblast, and Vuhledar, Novosilka, Pavlivka, and Prechistivka, Donetsk oblast.
Areas of 20 settlements near the contact line were damaged by fire in the South Buhka direction.
According to detailed information, damage to the enemy’s manpower and equipment in the previous days has been confirmed. Thus, 8 units of weapons and military equipment of various types were destroyed and up to 120 servicemen were wounded in the Zaporizhzhia oblast. On the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson oblast, about 100 wounded occupiers were delivered to medical facilities.
The command of the russian occupying forces, in order to avoid panic among the personnel, tries by all means to hide the real losses of servicemen.
The so-called „evacuation“ from the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson oblast continues. Considerable attention is paid to the export of medical equipment and property of, as the occupiers say, „nationalized“ enterprises. Thus, from the settlement of Bilozerka, the equipment of the local hospital is taken to the cities of Skadovsk and Henichesk. At the same time, the strengthening of the enemy group on the right-bank part of the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region by mobilized military personnel numbering up to 1,000 people is noted. They are resettled in the homes of local residents who have left these areas.
Aviation of the Defence Forces carried out 29 strikes during the past day. It was confirmed that 21 areas of concentration of manpower, weapons and military equipment of the enemy, 3 strongholds and 5 positions of anti-aircraft missile systems were destroyed. Air defence units shot down 2 enemy helicopters Ka-52 and one Su-25 attack aircraft.
Ukrainian missile forces and artillery struck 4 areas of concentration of manpower, weapons and military equipment and 1 warehouse with enemy ammunition.

Im Grunde kann ich Musk verstehen… Er stellt jetzt seit über einem halben Jahr mit seiner Starlink Infrastruktur, Internet in der fast kompletten Ukraine zur Verfügung. Das hat er bisher immer (lt. seiner Aussage) unentgeltlich gemacht. Diese Satteliten, was eine nicht unerherbliche Menge ist, fehlen dafür anderswo auf der Welt, wo dafür auch bezahlt wurden wäre.
Hinzu kommt, dass dieses Starlink System ständig Bedrohungen durch (russische) Hacker ausgesetzt ist. Es muss also 24/7 ständig überwacht und verteitigt werden. Und gleichzeitig darf es nicht ausfallen, weil dann die Ukraine vom Internet getrennt ist, was somit auch ein schwerer taktischer Verlust der UKR Streitkräfte ist. Vor paar Wochen hat Musk gesagt, dass das System so dermaßen von Hackerangriffen bedroht wird, dass es bald nicht mehr zu bewältigen ist, diese abzuwehren.
Da über der Ukraine über 1/4 seiner Satteliten kreisen, ist Starlink im Grunde derzeit ein wirtschaftlicher Totalschaden für Musk und den Firmen die dahinter stehen. Es werden haufen Energie, Ressourcen und finanzielle Mittel reingesteckt, aber es kommt dabei nichts raus. Das ist Verbrennung hoch zehn…
Man sollte also Musk nicht dafür kritisieren, wenn er laut darüber nachdenkt sein Starlink-System nicht mehr umsonst der Ukraine zur Verfügung zu stellen.
[Ich lasse das jetzt mal so stehen. Bitte Sie aber dringend darum, nochmal nachzudenken oder sich zu informieren, denn Aussagen wie „Da über der Ukraine über 1/4 seiner Satteliten kreisen“ zeigen doch, dass da ein wenig Nacharbeit nötig ist. Auf dem Niveau bitte hier nicht. T.W.]
Nachstehend, falls noch unbekannt, ein beunruhigender Bericht des Kyiv Independent über die Führung eines Teils der International Legion. Die Ukrainische Regierung muss sich dieses Problems umgehend annehmen.

@Krause
Die Satelliten (Schreibweise beachten) kreisen sehr schnell auf zuvor definierten Bahnen um die Erde. Normalerweise führen sie ein wenig Energie mit sich für Korrekturen. Aber man kann sie nicht „in die Ukraine schicken“ oder gar drüber kreisen lassen, oder wie immer Sie sich dies vorstellen.
„Im Grunde kann ich Musk verstehen“
Niemand kann Musk verstehen, genauso wie niemand Trump verstehen kann. Das sind meiner Meinung nach erratische Menschen, die es durch Ereignisse in der Vergangenheit oder Fähigkeiten die sie damals hatten zu Weltruhm gekommen sind und nun dauernd zu ihren Follower und der Welt über Dinge sprechen, die sie selber nicht verstehen. Man muss Musk mal zuhören, wenn er zB über Kryptotechnologie oder Meinungsfreiheit oder politische Lager „philosophiert“.
@Rufus: Musk ist also nur solange gut, wie er stumm das ihm gehörende System Starlink der UKR zur Verfügung stellt? Dünnes Eis… das der UKR auch nicht hilft.
Die Geschichte war wohl, daß der Friedensplan Musks – warum auch immer er sich dazu geäußert hat – von der UKR sehr brüsk zurückgewiesen wurde (Duktus: Musk kann sich zum Teufel scheren) und er dann verschnupft war.
Davon ab bin ich ob der – teilweise anmaßenden – Anspruchshaltung der UKR oftmals irritiert, auch das Kritisieren unserer Regierungsentscheidungen in ausfälliger Weise mißfällt mir. Aber vielleicht (hoffentlich) liegt es nur an einer fehlerhaften Übersetzung und um „click bait“ zu generieren.
@Eskadron: bitte Verööffentlichungsdatum beachten.

Zitat:“Die Ukrainische Regierung muss sich dieses Problems umgehend annehmen.“
Oh ja. Schon allein deshalb weil hier offenbar ein Teil der Legion für Verbrechen verantwortlich gemacht wird, für die sonst allein die Russen verantwortlich gemacht werden. Wenn die Story über den in Polen gesuchten Betrüger stimmt, dann wird das bestimmt kein Einzelfall sein. Vielmehr scheint auch Ukraine in ihren Gefängnissen Soldaten zu rekrutieren.
Ich bin nicht überrascht. Ich habe das sogar erwartet. Es gibt halt keinen Krieg ohne Kriegsverbrecher.
