DoD Official: 'Russia Making Move On Kyiv, This Is Just The Initial Phase'

US

Wires reporting comments from a senior US defence official saying that 'The US does not believe the full scope of Russian electronic warfare capabilities have come into play "and they may yet".

  • Paul McCleary at Politico tweets: "Senior defense official: Russia is "making a move on Kyiv...basically decapitating the government and installing their own method of governance." Defense official: seeing an "increase" of civilians fleeing to Poland, expecting the number to go up"
  • When asked on Putin's veiled nuclear threats, says "We don't see an increased threat in that regard, that's as far as I'll go,"
  • On broader conflict: "We believe that this is just an initial phase....Certainly not a majority [of Russian troops being used] at this point"
  • "We haven't been surprised by what we've seen unfold so far....[attack is] very much in line with what our initial expectations were"
