Update on the conflict in Ukraine for June 23, 2024...
- Western narratives continue to suggest Ukraine is buying time for additional arms and ammunition to arrive at the front;
- However, Western military production is unable to supply sufficient arms and ammunition to turn the tide in the fighting;
- Articles discussing an "elastic defense" admit the lopsided nature of fighting in Russia's favor;
- Other signs of flagging Western aid is the desperate decision to delay Patriot missile orders to redirect missiles to Ukraine;
- The US only produces 550 interceptors a year while Russia launches over 4,000 missiles at targets across Ukraine over the same period;
- "Factories" Western arms manufacturers claim they are building in Ukraine are mis-advertised, and instead small repair shops with negligible strategic value;
