Russia/Ukraine update.

Some key items I’ve gleaned

The Russian push out of crimea appears to be more successful than other fronts. Recent info shows the canal to crimea that has been shut down flowing with water again. Airborne forces better trained.

We have B52s orbiting over Poland and Sweden . Other air tanker traffic out of middle of US as well as other USAF planes (with trackers off). Could be more heavies e route to Europe

CONOPS (contingency operations) better confirmed with govt officials heading to bunkers.

Biden contemplating massive cyber attack

Arguement over the removal of Russia from the SWIFT system splits EU

Turkey may now favor shutting down access to/from Black Sea after one of its ships was attacked by Russia

Finally, Russia may be attempting a quick capture of Kyiv via the air assault on the nearby airport and Russian forces trying to push south out of Belarus. However it’ll take far more to take down a city of that size with highly motivated defenders.

Russia/Ukraine update

British and American intelligence assessed that Russia failed to meet its day 1 objectives. This is due to the fierce defense across all Russian attack axis’.
Ukraine still took a beating but has held up.
