@vfroloff 105mm howitzers can be transported by humvees, which is likely an advantage in certain terrain, and I suspect delivering 105mm rounds is a way to not deplete too much of the 155mm stockpile. — PolitiTweet.org

RIA Novosti says that the administration building in Russian-occupied Kherson was struck by at least 5 rockets/missiles. Presumably HIMARS. https://t.co/vUITb1NfLK https://t.co/VAoTtoCCFX https://t.co/UH8pJbL2hb — PolitiTweet.org

Baza reports that >8 prison transport trucks are transporting 400 prisoners in Tambov to a training area in southern Russia (possibly Wagner’s base in Molkino) likely before going to Ukraine. They say 10-12 prison trucks were seen in Belgorod last night. https://t.co/Cv3fMZcwEH https://t.co/d7QBuN6YZ1 — PolitiTweet.org

@mgerrydoyle Was that a common view? My take was that the Russian military started to fight according to its doctrine in the spring, but that heavy casualties in Feb-March meant it would struggle to take much territory. I think the failures of the first month dictated the rest of the war. — PolitiTweet.org

And to emphasize, militaries sometimes run into these issues when a war is going poorly, but the high number of refuseniks in this case occurred *before* the war began. — PolitiTweet.org

I don't think most of them refused to deploy because they are necessarily against the war, but because they realized it was going to be a disaster, especially when they were given a few hours' notice they were invading Ukraine. Another consequence of how Russia planned this war. — PolitiTweet.org
Rob Lee @RALee85
I've heard of other Russian units in which 20% or more of soldiers, including officers, refused to deploy to Ukraine. Given Russia's manpower problems, the number of refuseniks is a not insignificant factor in the Russian military's struggles in Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org
Rob Lee @RALee85
Captains and senior lieutenants (couldn't tell for the first photo) likely from naval infantry units. That officers who should be serving as company commanders or deputy commanders in elite units are refusing to deploy tells you something about the extent of the refusenik problem — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: U.S. to announce new $600M weapons package for Ukraine tomorrow, per two sources. Includes more HIMARS and 155mm ammo, I'm told.

@ItalianLeopard2 Yes, but it doesn't make sense to have unarmored pick ups and MT-LB moving together for that purpose. — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, but they are affecting Russia's ability to prosecute the war and many of those effects will become greater over time (and other countries are watching). As with other lessons, we should wait until the war is over to draw strong conclusions about the efficacy of sanctions. — PolitiTweet.org

I think the use of pick up trucks in this case is due to a lack of armored vehicles. — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting details from this video from Ukraine’s Kraken unit in Balakliya. It shows 2S3 Akatsiya howitzer, Strela-10, what looks like a bridge layer, MT-LB (one with a ZU-23-2), BRDM-2, a captured Tigr-M, pick up trucks, and possible HIMARS launches. https://t.co/FG2AzVesTY https://t.co/Jsf4gdgfCM — PolitiTweet.org
