由於沒有對傷亡和裝備損失的可靠估計,分析人士不得不尋找有關烏克蘭軍隊狀況的其他線索。 分析師使用的一項評價標準是他們的戰鬥方式。蘇格蘭聖安德魯斯大學(University of St. Andrews)的戰略研究教授Phillips O'Brien說:「他們看起來是在有能力、有智慧地戰鬥嗎?有失敗的跡象嗎?」他說,他沒有看到這些跡象。西方裝備的大量湧入也將提高烏克蘭軍隊的戰鬥力。
倫敦安全智庫皇家聯合軍種研究所(Royal United Services Institute)前主任Michael Clarke表示,美國總統拜登向國會申請330億美元的長期軍事援助是一個信號,表明他「將不惜一切代價確保烏克蘭不會倒下。這讓烏克蘭被打敗的可能性大大降低。」
The Army Corps of Engineers is leading Task Force Restore Iraqi Oil (RIO). The TF RIO mission is to restore the oil production, oil refining and gas processing capability to pre-war levels for the benefit of the Iraqi people. The mission includes humanitarian assistance. RIO is providing emergency supplies of gasoline, LPG and other petroleum products to distribution points operated by the Iraqi Ministry of Oil for use by the Iraqi people. Exceeding their project goals, the Iraqi Ministry of Oil and TF RIO, working together, have brought crude production up to over 2 million barrels per day.
