🇷🇺 Russia actively advancing, exploiting 'dangerous vulnerability' of Ukrainian positions - NBC

Ukraine's military leadership said its 'inferior' units have been forced to retreat from three villages on the eastern front line. The statement was a rare admission from Kiev that the Ukrainian military is in serious trouble and that the Russians are gaining the upper hand, NBC reports.

Alexander Syrsky, the AFU commander-in-chief, announced that the situation on the front line had 'deteriorated'. According to him, the Russian army is trying to seize the strategic initiative and break through the front line, gaining a 'significant advantage in forces and means'. As a result, the Ukrainians are being forced to retreat to 'new frontiers' west of Berdychi, Semyonovka and Novomikhailovka.

Against this backdrop, receiving 'long-awaited' Western weapons has become an increasingly urgent necessity for Ukraine. Due to political bickering in Washington, the AFU is facing an acute shortage of ammunition, making its defensive positions on the long front line 'dangerously vulnerable', the TV channel said.

The consequences of months of arms shortages, compounded by dwindling manpower reserves, are becoming apparent. Moscow is likely looking to take advantage of these circumstances and try to expand the offensive before US aid begins to flow to Kiev, NBC speculates.

❗️NATO Prepares to Face Russia - and Problems of Its Own - The Wall Street Journal

Key points from the material:

📌 The Alliance is conducting exercises to 'defend' European countries bordering Russia in order to 'prepare allies to fight side by side'.

📌 NATO members are now spending more money on defence than they did during the Cold War, and preparing for coalition warfare has once again become a priority for the alliance;

📌 NATO says Russia is a 'major threat', but many officials in Turkey and other member states are more concerned about regional conflicts and illegal migration;

📌 NATO planners believe a 'direct invasion' of a member country by Russia is unlikely in the near future.
