Crippling Ukraine’s Logistics Deals Double Blow to Military and Economy - Expert (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As Ukrainian civilian logistic networks have been used for military purposes, their destruction will affect Ukraine’s combat capability, researcher at the Institute of CIS Countries Alexander Dudchak tells Sputnik. Military Use of Ukrainian Logistics Comes at Civilians’ Expense Ukrainians will not be left without food, Vysotsky assured. But when he says logistics will shift to “just-in-time” deliveries, he means operating without reserves or stockpiles, Sputnik's pundit explains. Neither the Ukr
Energy Strikes Weaken Ukraine’s War Machine, But Elites Would Rather Freeze People Than Surrender (opens the original)

"All communications depend on electricity," Yushkov says. "Starlink systems, for example, require power, as do drones. Ukraine’s defense industry also relies on electricity – without it, military production would be impossible." Ukraine’s electrical generation capacity has fallen fivefold since 2022, from 60 to 12 GW, according to a recent US intelligence report.

So they decide to stay silent: there is nothing to boast about, they can’t keep lying, and continuing to do so would only hurt them, according to Litovkin.

Seize Russian Ships, Face Reciprocal Action Where You Least Expect It — Military Expert (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"By responding in kind, [Russia] means that it will detain vessels belonging to unfriendly states, as well as those of countries that support them – the so-called ‘front’ states," retired Russian Navy Captain First Rank Vasily Dandykin tells Sputnik. That is exactly what unfriendly states are doing now: they are taking people off ships, arresting crews and seizing vessels on fabricated pretexts, the pundit explains. Russia has trained personnel and the necessary capabilities for the reciprocal a
