According to the military observer of BILD Julian Röpke, the main hope for the Ukrainian army is the arrival of new weapons, including ammunition for Western precision weapons. Video footage from Poland shows dozens of Bradley APCs waiting in a parking lot to be transported across the border.
After the decision of the US Congress to provide aid to Kiev, Ukraine used significantly more M30 missiles to destroy Russian multi-purpose missile launchers and anti-aircraft systems at a distance of up to 80 km behind the front line. This probably indicates that the Ukrainian armed forces have been promised hundreds of new missiles in the next few days.
In parallel, the Ukrainian army is carrying out massive strikes on the Russian oil industry. The Smolensk region was particularly affected, where a Rosneft oil depot and a pumping station caught fire after a drone attack. Another Ukrainian drone crashed into an oil depot in the Voronezh region. In addition, the Lipetsk Tractor Plant, which produces important components for the military armored vehicles of the Russian Armed Forces, has been hit.
