Amid the ongoing Russian offensive in Ukraine, the Defence Ministry has issued its latest intelligence update on Sunday, April 3. The Defence Ministry in its latest defence update stated that Russian naval forces continue to maintain a “distant blockade” of the Ukrainian coast in the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. The action of Russian armed forces has prevented Ukrainian resupply by sea.
Taking to Twitter, the Defence Ministry in the latest defence intelligence update revealed that Russia still has the capacity to make an amphibious landing. It further highlighted that such action by Russian troops could likely lead to “increasingly high risk” as the Ukrainian armed forces have received time for preparation.
Furthermore, the Defence ministry in its update informed that mines that have been reported in the Black Sea pose a risk to maritime activity. Even though the presence of mines is not clear, however, their presence could be due to Russian naval activity in the region, according to the Defence Ministry. The Ministry added that the activity shows how the Russian military action against Ukraine has impacted the interests of civilians.
The Defence Ministry stated that Russian air activity was witnessed towards southeastern Ukraine during the last week. Ukraine continues to show resistance against Russian air and missile activities. According to the UK Defence Ministry, the Russian armed forces have been unable to find and destroy air defence systems and it has hindered their activity to have control over the air.
The inability of Russian armed forces to gain control of the air has impacted the activity of their troops on the ground.
