April 12, 20223 yr Daily Pentagon Background Briefing: 1. US acknowledges the Russian convoy going towards Izium, says it includes a command element, support battalion, and helicopters. US unclear what the final destination for these forces will be. No indication for when the Donbas offensive will begin. 2. Clear indications that Russia is focusing on Donbas. Russia is reinforcing its posture in the city of Donetsk (this was held by the DNR prior to the war) with artillery. Russia has about 20 BTGs in the Northeast, half of which are in Ukraine, though the latter number has increased by 2 in the past day. There are still "dozens" of BTGs arrayed in the South and Southeast of Ukraine. 3. Russia still occupies Kherson, but has been unable to take Mykolaiv. Situation in Mariupol is dire, but US assesses that the Russians aren't any closer seizing the city than they were last week. 4. US refutes Russian claims that it destroyed an S-300 battery that had just been delivered by Slovakia. Weapons transfers to Ukraine are "near-constant", and the US hasn't experienced any difficulty getting them into the country. 5. US unclear what the appointment of Army General Alexander Dvornikov will mean for the war, does not necessarily see his appointment as helpful in the conflict.
