🇷🇺🇺🇦WSJ: Russian Missile Strike on Training Center Came From Russia’s Airspace, U.S. Says

🇷🇺🇺🇦Eastern Mariupol

🇷🇺🇺🇦Institute for the Study of War:
Russian forces conducted several assaults on eastern Mariupol on March 13-14. Russian artillery continued to shell the city and its northern outskirts, and Russian aircraft are increasingly conducting close-air-support missions near the city. Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov claimed 5,000 Chechen soldiers are fighting near Mariupol on March 14. Social media users on the ground confirmed the presence of Chechen fighters.

🇷🇺🇺🇦ISW:
Russian and proxy forces continue to achieve slow but steady territorial gains in Donetsk Oblast after initial failures in the first week of the Russian invasion. The Russian Ministry of Defense claimed Russian forces have advanced 15-17km from the pre-invasion line of contact in Donetsk Oblast as of March 14. The Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) additionally announced a list of 90 settlements it claims to have captured as of March 14. Russian and proxy forces likely seek to advance toward Zaporizhya and mitigate the possibility of any Ukrainian attempts to relieve Mariupol or attempts by its defenders to break out.

🇷🇺🇺🇦ISW:
Russian troops may drive on Zaporizhya City itself within the next 48-72 hours, likely attempting to block it on both banks of the Dnipro River and set conditions for subsequent operations after Russian forces take Mariupol, which they are currently besieging
