Or philip is actually less key, is a full, messy i Power Military case officer. Hes now director of sensitive for intelligence and non traditional welfare at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in the United States. He gave us his assessment on the situation in and around bill garage. I would say that you have to look at these attacks in 2 contexts. One is a tactical operation design probably to relieve pressure from Ukraine Forces under attack and the done boss and south region areas to the of the south east of the country. But also its a psychological operation to discredit, to me during the elections which have just passed. And also to show that the promise that this war is not going to affect the average russian is not true. So it also undermines the kremlin is claim that all russians support this war because of we have at least the tax is 3 Russian Volunteer military units fighting for on the side of the brain against pollutants regime. And these are the people who are undertaking this attacks right now. I want to pick up on that because as you say, aside from the strikes by you crime, the pain and rights are being carried on by these pro ukrainian Power Military. Some of the same russian. Tell us what do you know about them . These 3 groups have been around for a few years, and theyre generally made up of either defectors, prisoners of war, who come over the ukraine side, or also ethnic russians who had immigrated earlier to ukraine and are also fine.

Putting the has responded personally, saying russia will respond, giving, given everything that youve just told us how big of a challenge these raids and cross border strikes for him as we shouldnt exaggerate their military impair. Is there a few 1000 men there not being supported . The regular Ukrainian Forces are not coming across the border. They are coming across the border of only a few kilometers. This is not a drive on build garage, which is only about 4 kilometers from the border with ukraine. But it said, are dispersed along the border with the curse and build the rateable glass. In other words, it makes it harder for the russians to respond and it makes it harder for them to consecrate their forces against these units. Again, theyre just over the border from ukraine, but theyre having an effect because the marshall the forces hes either boot is going to attend the show. Boy are going to either have to use reserves. They have in rush themselves, or theyre going to have to move fluids from the dumbasses operation care some battlefields around uh to build the rod and in personal glass in order to take care of this.
