Putin's IBS

@kardinal691

The #Russian_Federation is experiencing a shortage of qualified personnel in the military-industrial complex, and enterprises have significantly lowered the criteria for recruiting new employees, — the Institute for the Study of War (#ISW)

#Putin spoke about #Russia's problems

in this area during a recent visit to the aircraft factory in #Ulan_Ude. He also reported that the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the #Russian_Federation had prepared a list of unspecified specialties for deferment from military service, which may indicate that the #Kremlin

prefers the use of skilled workers in the production of #Russian weapons rather than qualifications of soldiers are fighting in the #Russian army.

"#Russian defence enterprises have significantly reduced hiring standards and are now accepting workers without experience, with

#SpaceX has taken steps to prevent 🇺🇦#Ukraine's military from using the company's #Starlink satellite internet service for controlling drones in the region during the country's #war with 🇷🇺#Russia - Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX's president said...

2/3 Ukraine has made effective use of unmanned aircraft for spotting enemy, targeting fires and dropping bombs.
"There are things that we can do to limit their ability to do that," she said, referring to Starlink's use with drones "There are things that we can do, and have done."

This is fucking ridiculous.
Seems like @elonmusk keeps looking for new ways assisting 🇷🇺#Russia in aggression.
Depriving the Internet for missiles and drones at the front deprives the Internet itself of meaning. Absolutely disgusting!

"Warmongers gonna be Warmongers"

#Putin is trying to distance himself from the nationalist warmongers because of their maximalist demands in the war — #ISW

The head of the #Kremlin understands that he will not be able to achieve the previously announced goals in #Ukraine, so he

is doing everything to minimize the role of radical military bloggers who criticize him for army defeats and wrong decisions.

The #Kremlin is trying to reorient public opinion in favor of its official messages, creating the impression that the authorities are adhering to

a “moderate” and authoritative position.

Instead, the field commanders are allegedly guided by unverified information, which is why they misjudge #Russia's "true intentions" in Ukraine and negatively affect the perception of the so-called special operation by ordinary #Russians.

❗️ #Russian forces are attempting to secure smaller encirclements and concentrate on #Severodonetsk , according to @TheStudyofWar
Key #ISW conclusions:

▪️ #Russian forces have likely abandoned efforts to complete a single, large encirclement of #Ukrainian forces in eastern Ukraine. Instead, they are attempting to secure smaller encirclements and to concentrate on Severodonetsk.

▪️ #Ukrainian forces are likely conducting a controlled withdrawal southwest of #Popasna near #Bakhmut to protect Ukrainian supply lines against Russian offensives southeast of Bakhmut.
