Russian Ops in Ukraine Update: Pentagon Sends Old Vehicles & Ukraine's True Colors Begin to Show
Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for May 1, 2022
1. US continues sending old equipment including M113 tracked armored transports;
2. US is not discussing sending US-made air defense systems - likely because it is so impractical;
3. Pentagon is providing crash-courses, unable to replace the loss of trained personnel created over the last 8 years;
4. US narrative continues to center on Russian “war of aggression;”
5. US also continues to ignore Russian security concerns;
6. US media admits Ukrainian security forces are dragging Russian-speakers away to prison for political speech.
