"The Pentagon has asked the Ukrainians what they need to make their gambit successful, U.S. officials said, but no decisions have been made to materially support the effort.
Internal administration discussions have focused on whether to adjust the contents of weapons packages that are now being dispatched every two weeks...
So far, the administration says it has no firm sense of Ukraine’s goals in seizing territory inside Russia, or whether it intends to hold or expand its occupation. 'They may have a plan, but they’re not sharing it with us,' said the U.S. official,"

"U.S. officials have said they have not provided intelligence to aid the Kursk operation. 'I don’t foresee the United States helping or providing assistance in intel sharing that would enable the further taking of sovereign Russian territory,' a second U.S. official said...
Kyiv has implemented a new mobilization campaign — drafting some 30,000 troops a month, according to analysts and Western officials."

@vasilina_orlova: But I think that was before they knew Ukraine was going to conduct an offensive.

Until he’s in shape and not obese, he’s going to continue to look terrible.

RT @konrad_muzyka: Here’s a brief overview of the situation. A few weeks ago, Belarusian forces began conducting various exercises that we believe are preparations for a large-scale bilateral drill involving one operational command against another. Although this concept isn’t new (the Russians first implemented it on a large scale in 2019), Minsk only conducted a drill of this magnitude for the first time last year, in September. https://twitter.com/Liveuamap/status/1827775853339586792#m

RT @konrad_muzyka: While it is crucial to remain vigilant and closely monitor Minsk’s actions, intentions, methods, and their potential impact, we assess that it is unlikely Belarus is considering offensive action against Ukraine at this stage. Our long-term assessment is that the Belarusian Armed Forces primarily function as a mobilization force, which would require a significant increase in manpower through mobilization to conduct any offensive operations. Even then, their forces primarily rely on post-Soviet equipment that has seen minimal modernization, leaving them ill-equipped for contemporary battlefield demands.

@RpsAgainstTrump: If only this was reported the same way every time a Russian drone or missile hit a residential building in Ukraine. This is the stuff that happens every day to Ukrainians, and not with little drones but with massive 500kg to +1000kg missiles

RT @OstapYarysh: This is the size of Ukraine compared to the US. Imagine an air raid siren going off from New Jersey to Missouri, from Michigan to North Carolina. A Ukrainian territory of the same size is currently under a missile attack from Russia. And the same goes on every week.
