☆ Everyone is angry at Germany after a series of snubs and screw-ups
  + stars: | 2024-03-06 | by ( Mia Jankowicz | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
Leaked German military discussions about sending Taurus missiles to Ukraine have caused discord. It's the latest diplomatic spat related to Germany and aid to Ukraine. After the US, Germany is the country sending the most military aid to Ukraine, at least in terms of volume. A mortifying leakPart of this anger was triggered by Russian state broadcaster RT publishing a 38-minute leaked recording of four German officials discussing how Ukraine could deploy German Taurus missiles. Taurus missiles are — very broadly speaking — Germany's equivalent to the Storm Shadow: powerful, long-range weapons with a strong ability to evade air defenses.

Russia may be losing more soldiers in Ukraine now than at any other time in the war, per UK intel. The UK Ministry of Defence put it down to those killed and injured in Russia's attacks on Avdiivka. Russian casualties in November are outpacing those of its March offensive in Bakhmut, Ukraine said.

☆ Ukraine's military medical care has been superior to Russia's, but the lasting Soviet doctrine of simply throwing waves of soldiers at your enemies could help make up for it
  + stars: | 2023-08-29 | by ( Kelsey Vlamis | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Military medicine experts told Insider Ukraine's medical care in war has been better than Russia's. But Ukraine's medical advantage could be undercut by the sheer number of potential Russian soldiers. The UK's MOD said last year that Russian soldiers were being advised to use women's sanitary products as first aid supplies.

But for Russian and Soviet soldiers, medical support has largely seemed to be an afterthought.

☆ Russia's air force is barely able to leave its own airspace because Ukraine's defenses are so strong, UK intel says

The Russian Air Force continues to struggle against Ukraine's strong air defenses, UK intel said.

☆ Putin is making strategic mistakes because nobody in the Kremlin can tell him he's wrong, UK intelligence chief says
  + stars: | 2022-10-11 | by ( Mia Jankowicz | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Putin's strategy is failing because he has "little effective internal challenge," per a UK intel chief. The remarks come after Putin launched a major bombardment of Ukrainian cities and facilities. The Russian leader has surrounded himself primarily with people who share his mindset, making internal challenges to his thinking exceedingly rare. Putin framed this as retaliation for an attack on the Kerch Strait Bridge over the weekend, state media reported. On Saturday, Putin named a notoriously brutal commander, Sergei Surovikin, to lead Russia's assault on Ukraine.
☆ The number of Russians fleeing the country to evade Putin's draft is bigger than the original invasion force, UK intel says
  + stars: | 2022-09-29 | by ( Mia Jankowicz | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
The UK's MOD said the number of fleeing Russians likely exceeds Putin's original invasion force. "Whilst exact numbers are unclear, it likely exceeds the size of the total invasion force Russia fielded in February 2022." According to the Associated Press, as of Wednesday at least 194,000 Russians have fled to Georgia, Kazakhstan and Finland alone. Those conservative estimates already exceed what the US had estimated to be the 190,000-strong invasion force that massed at Ukraine's border just prior to the invasion. The UK's MOD noted on Thursday that "the better off and well educated are over-represented amongst those attempting to leave Russia."
