Russia’s long-anticipated large-scale offensive in eastern Ukraine has begun, Zelensky says
The Pentagon says Russian forces are learning from their frustrated assault on Kyiv as they shift to Donbas, in eastern Ukraine, in an attempt to avoid a repeat of earlier mistakes.
Still, Russia’s efforts to buttress its war machinery with repair and resupply capabilities is unlikely to solve its overarching problems with preparedness, the official said. Sanctions have affected the Russian forces’ restocking and resupply efforts “particularly in the realm of components,” the official warned. A lack of parts, the official said, are affecting the viability of several Russian weapons systems, including precision-guided munitions.
The official said that another 22 battalion tactical groups are probably being refitted and resupplied after withdrawing from Ukraine to points north.
