Vladimir Putin's Humiliating Admission: Russian Military Has Been Depleted as Ukraine War Drags On
Story by Joshua Wilburn • 12h ago
The Russian President raised concerns about the inadequacy of military hardware required for a victory in Ukraine during an address to a group of pro-war bloggers at the Kremlin on Tuesday, June 13.Putin underscored the deficiencies plaguing the Russian armed forces while asserting that Moscow is taking measures to bridge the gap by bolstering weapons production."During the course of the special military operation, it has become clear there are shortages of many things – precision-guided munitions, communications equipment, aircraft, drones and so on," Putin told the various outlets."We have them, but unfortunately, we don't have enough of them."While the production of "high-priority" equipment had been on the rise in Russia, the most in-demand weaponry saw a remarkable tenfold increase.The inadequacy of precision-guided weaponry has hindered Russia's invasion of the war-torn nation, preventing effective strikes on strategic targets from a distance.Russian forces have reportedly resorted to using imprecise drones, including the Iranian-made Shahed-129, to target structures. The Russian NAVY have also been firing missiles from their ships to target residential landlocked targets. These desperate measures demonstrate the limitations imposed on Moscow due to its limited critical military assets.The Institute for the Study of War, which has provided regular updates and analysis on the mounting crisis, claimed that Russia's military was "significantly depleted" despite Putin's desperate push to enlist thousands of military-aged men into the fight with little to no preparation.According to the Institute, the campaign has "significantly depleted Russian equipment and manpower reserves necessary to sustain a successful large-scale offensive in eastern Ukraine.".......
