Russia steps up offensive on Ukraine over 24 hours but has no major gains – British intelligence

The Ukrainian Armed Forces are conducting successful counterattacks: in the last 24 hours, russian troops have not made any significant progress.

A recent British intelligence report said that during the two months of the war, Russia had failed to establish control over the airspace in any of the regions. Russian troops have not achieved significant success in the last 24 hours despite the increased activity, as the Ukrainian Armed Forces are carrying out successful counterattacks.

“Russian air and maritime forces have not established control in either domain owing to the effectiveness of Ukraine’s air and see defence reducing their ability to make notable progress,” the report said.

In addition, despite the statement of the Russian authorities about the alleged capture of Mariupol, fierce fighting continues in the city, which further slows down the russian offensive in the Donbas.

As reported earlier, the British intelligence knew Putin’s plans to execute peaceful Ukrainians in advance.
