What issues is Russia facing in Ukraine war? – BBC News

Published

on



As Ukraine prepares for a much anticipated counter-offensive against Russian forces, BBC Analysis Editor Ros Atkins looks at the challenges facing Russia’s military.

Since Russia’s President Vladimir Putin began the invasion of Ukraine, thousands of civilians and combatants have been killed or injured, cities and towns have been destroyed in fighting, and nearly 8.2 million Ukrainians have been registered as refugees in Europe, with 2.8 million of them in Russia.

In the past few days, President Volodymyr Zelensky has been on a European tour, in which he has been promised several billion dollars’ worth of military equipment by Western allies, including UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and President Emmanuel Macron of France.

    The BBC uses sinister intimidatory tactics via the agency it uses to collect unpaid BBC tax (the BBC licence fee), in order to force unwilling people to pay for (inter alia) its pro-Ukraine war, stance and suppression of suggestions of peace negotiations to end the conflict; its pro-WEF restriction of what should should be inalienable liberties of the individual (the BBC’s twisted biased one-sided ‘Covid’ propaganda which ignored eminent virologists, immunologists and epidemiologists who disagreed with lockdown oppression and people being coerced into receiving novel medical treatment against their will; its unquestionably politically-biased coverage of everything it reports on; it’s significant role in what will be the destruction of the NHS through sheer weight of patient numbers, encouraged by the BBC’s pro-mass-illegal and uncontrolled immigration of undocumented (mostly economic) migrants from a safe place in continental Europe; its ignoring of serious issues around transgenderism including children undergoing mutilating surgical procedures at a young age; etc etc etc
    The vast majority of British people do not share the BBC’s twisted cult outlook but are forced under threat of criminalisation to pay for the weird garbage it pumps out, trashing the concept of the traditional family unit of a mother, a father and male sons and female daughters.

    I think the general idea is the US wants to cut-off China and Russia from the Middle East and Africa. The key is invading and controlling Iran. Since Iran cannot be invaded through waterways to its South, the US wishes to create a landroute from the waterways next to Syria, which is doable given US control/invasion of Iraq. Ukraine is just being used as an avenue to move Russian forces away from Syria. And, Russia will likely do so given they feel their homeland is at stake.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
