"After months of a buildup of weaponry, materiel, and troops along Ukraine's
borders, as well as extreme geopolitical posturing and brinksmanship,
Russia has begun a major military operation in Ukraine. Russian President
Vladimir Putin announced the start of the "special military operation" in a
speech broadcast on national television this evening."

"Putin reiterated many of the same claims he had made in a speech earlier
this week as justification for launching the military intervention against
Ukraine, including the refusal of the government in Kyiv to renounce any
plans to join NATO and the entirely unsubstantiated claims that Ukraine is
seeking to develop nuclear weapons. He insisted that Russia is not seeking
to occupy Ukraine, but claimed that the country would be "demilitarized" as
result. He added that Ukrainian forces that laid down their weapons now
would be assured safe passage back to their homes. The Russian President
threatened swift action against any outside powers that might attempt to
intervene in the conflict, as well."

Russia's Frightening Multi-Prong Invasion Of Ukraine Has Only Just
Begun

"At around 5 AM local time, after a fiery speech, Russian President Vladimir
Putin ordered a "special military operation" in Ukraine's contested Donbas
region. Of course, just as expected, the actual military operation that
commenced had elements that occurred far outside of this region as
Russian forces launched opening standoff missile attacks on command
and control facilities, air defense sites, airbases, and other key targets in a
move to blunt Ukraine's ability to defend itself and shatter its command and
control capabilities. The widespread use of land-attack cruise missiles was
especially clear, along with long-range anti-radiation missiles used to knock
out radar sites. Special operations also appeared to have played a major
part in these opening maneuvers that were largely focused on 'shaping the
battlefield' for what was still to come.

Meanwhile, it appears that a multi-pronged ground offensive emanating from
Ukraine's northeastern border with Russia, as well as south from Crimea, and
north from Belarus, is still in its beginning stages. There is the worry that such
a multi-directional attack could trap Ukrainian forces concentrated in the east,
severing their supply lines from the west, while leaving the capital of Kyiv
vulnerable to being sacked from the north. Amphibious operations are still a
very real possibility, as well, with Odesa and Mariupol being prime targets.
Regardless, at least as it stands now, by every indication, it appears the scale of
Russia's invasion operation is among the largest feared."

Ukraine's Capital Kyiv Braces For A Major Battle With Encroaching
Russian Forces

"As Russian forces continue their push on Ukraine's capital Kyiv, as well as make
advances along other fronts, President Vladimir Putin has effectively called for the
Ukrainian military to stage a coup and implicitly threatened strikes that could kill
civilians. This all follows a large Russian missile barrage on Kyiv earlier this morning."

Russia strikes merchant ships in Black Sea as it launches amphibious
assault on Ukraine

"According to the Ukrainian defense ministry, Russia launched missiles at Namura
Queen, hitting Panama flagged bulk carrier’s stern. A fire broke out on the ship, and a
fire tow was called. Ukraine responded to the emergency and the situation is under
control, according to the defense ministry.

The second ship that was targeted, and hit, by Russian missiles, as reported by the
Ukrainian defense ministry, is the Moldova-flagged oil tanker Millenial Spirit. The attack
was also confirmed by the Naval Agency of the Republic of Moldova, who said the ship
was in the neutral waters of the Black Sea at the time of the attack. The agency added
that the source of the missile launch was unknown."

Ukraine's Prototype Kevlar-E Armored Fighting Vehicle Has Joined The Fight Against Russia

"A prototype Ukrainian tracked infantry fighting vehicle, which uses the same chassis as the 122mm 2S1 Gvozdika self-
propelled howitzer and appears to be the only example of its kind ever built, looks to have joined the country's fight
against invading Russian forces. A video emerged on social media earlier today, which was reportedly taken recently 111
in the city of Kharkiv, that clearly shows the vehicle, known as Kevlar-E, driving down a street flying a large Ukrainian
flag."

U.S. To Bolster Ukrainian Air Defenses As Russian Advance Grinds On

"U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken says that a new military aid package for Ukraine will contain "lethal defensive
assistance" to help the country "address the armored, airborne, and other threats." This strongly suggests that anti-
aircraft weapons, possibly shoulder-fired Stinger surface-to-air missiles will be among the deliveries. It has been
confirmed that the U.S. shipments will include more Javelin anti-tank missiles, which have already distinguished
themselves in this conflict. All of this comes as Russia continues to press ahead with its invasion in the face of fierce
Ukrainian resistance."

Putin Has Never Lost a War. Here Is How He'll Win In Ukraine

"As the battle of wills and might between Russia and the west over the fate of Ukraine unfolds, there is one key fact to
bear in mind: Vladimir Putin has never lost a war. During past conflicts in Chechnya, Georgia, Syria and Crimea over his
two decades in power, Putin succeeded by giving his armed forces clear, achievable military objectives that would allow
him to declare victory, credibly, in the eyes of the Russian people and a wary, watching world. His latest initiative in
Ukraine is unlikely to be any different."

Russian invasion runs into stiff resistance, supply lines are a 'definite vulnerability,' US officials say

"On the battlefield, Russia is suffering heavier losses in personnel and armor and aircraft than expected. This is due in
part to the fact that Ukrainian air defenses have performed better than pre-invasion US intelligence assessments had
anticipated. In addition, Russia has yet to establish air supremacy over Ukraine, a senior dedfense official said, as the
Ukrainian Air Force and air defense systems fight for control of the airspace."

Here Are The Options For The EU's Initiative To Restock Ukraine With
Fighter Jets

"In a major development with regards to the conflict in Ukraine, a top European Union
official says that the bloc is now working to facilitate the delivery of fighter jets to the
country as it continues to resist a full-on Russian invasion. Additional combat aircraft
could be especially valuable for the Ukrainians, who have been able to prevent Russian
from gaining air superiority, so far, but have suffered losses over the course of the
fighting."

""Russia has overstretched," Daniel Hoffman said during an interview with Fox News.

Kremlin media used claims of Ukraine creating a dirty bomb to justify invasion

"Following the seizure of Ukraine’s Chernobyl nuclear power plant by Russian troops,
Kremlin-owned outlet RIA accused Ukraine of “almost creating a dirty nuclear bomb.”
The unsupported claim cites a February 22 interview with Russian President Vladimir
Putin, in which he stated that even the appearance of tactical nuclear weapons in
Ukraine is a strategic threat for Russia. The same narrative was spread just prior to the
Russian invasion. The accusation, repeatedly presented without any evidence, is being
circulated on multiple platforms, including YouTube, Facebook, VK, and various
websites."

simply ran out of gas, unable to stay in the game and compete with the United States
at a time when the digital revolution was about to remake power indices and reshape
the world."

Ukraine's First Round Of Talks With Russia Ends Without A Ceasefire
Agreement

"The first round of talks between Ukrainian and Russian delegations near the Belarusian

particularly brazen rocket artillery barrage on the city of Kharkiv that caused numerous
civilian causalities."

US intel agencies are debating whether Putin has lost mental faculties
or is bluffing to unnerve the West, report says

"Putin had been previously seen as brutal but a coldly rational actor. Yet some experts
have said that his isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic, when he tightly restricted
his interactions with the wider world, might have affected his sense of reality."

A former US ambassador to Russia says Putin is becoming
'increasingly unhinged' and 'disconnected from reality'

""Remember, this guy's been in power for 22 years. He doesn't listen to his aides. Even
when I was ambassador eight years ago, he was very dismissive of anybody around
him. He's out at his compound, doesn't come into town very much, and, under COVID,
he's been more isolated," McFaul said."
