In today’s #RussianWarReport🇷🇺, @DFRLab's team reports on Russia’s advance in Bakhmut, a captured Russian spy, crazed tank narratives, and new Russian maps that include parts of Ukraine.

These and more🧵👇atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atla…
After gaining control over Soledar in mid-January, Wagner Group soldiers are attempting to encircle #Bakhmut. @DFRLab confirmed the progression of a bloc of forces that includes Wagner, the People’s Militia of the Donetsk People’s Republic, and Russian armed forces.
Ukrainian intelligence announced the capture of a Russian agent who allegedly leaked info on Ukrainian military operations. He was allegedly recruited after the invasion.

Elsewhere, Russia launched limited offensives on along the Kreminna-Svatove line. t.me/SBUkr/6960
After Western allies approved providing tanks to Ukraine, Kremlin narratives have gone into high gear to vocally oppose the support. One narrative presented the latest military aid package as a reaction from a panicked West due to Russia’s “success.” interaffairs.ru/news/show/38705
Kremlin-approved media outlet RBC reported on that Russian bookstores are selling new maps that include Crimea, Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson oblasts as part of Russia. @DFRLab found a map for sale on the website of the Russian publishing company Atlas Print.

Open-source software is ubiquitous in today’s software systems. How can policymakers support its security and sustainability as a shared resource?

By borrowing lessons from infrastructure policy. Check out @CyberStatecraft's new report 🧵 atlanticcouncil.org/in-depth-resea…
@CyberStatecraft Open-source software (OSS) is code published under a license that allows anyone to inspect, modify, and re-distribute the source code. It helps developers share and re-use solutions to common problems. Some estimate that ~97% of software depends on OSS!
@CyberStatecraft The report walks through the basic challenges of securing and sustaining OSS and develops three analogies to understand OSS as infrastructure: water management systems 💧, financial markets 💸, and roads and bridges 🚧.

Russia’s offensive on Ukraine's eastern and southern fronts have intensified as Ukraine prepares to receive tanks from allies. Meanwhile, pro-Kremlin sources are amplifying forged diplomatic letters targeting refugees.

#RussianWarReport🇷🇺 🧵👇 atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atla…
As Ukrainian forces retreated from Soledar following weeks of battle, shelling across the Bakhmut-Donetsk axis intensified and hit several civilian residential areas. @DFRLab and others geolocated targeted infrastructure and a build up of Russian assets.
Fighting across the war’s southern front suggests Russian progression in several areas including Stepove, Polohy, and Kherson. These battles come as Ukraine prepares for a spring offensive of their own. english.elpais.com/international/…

At #360StratCom, we welcomed @krmaher, @Connect_Fund's Jochai Ben-Avie, @theGNI's @pielemeier and @UniLeiden's @gap_the_mind to discuss the Freedom Online Coalition (FOC) and how it can best be leveraged to advance a proactively democratic digital world. 🧵atlanticcouncil.org/content-series…
@krmaher @Connect_Fund @theGNI @pielemeier @UniLeiden @gap_the_mind For the FOC to reach its greatest potential, it needs to articulate the connections between pluralistic, open societies and a secure, interoperable, free, and open internet. @krmaher explains:
@krmaher @Connect_Fund @theGNI @pielemeier @UniLeiden @gap_the_mind If the FOC is to grow and function effectively, it is critical that members share common values and principles. Given how complex and ever-changing the environment in which the FOC operates is, @gap_the_mind argues, member states must be held accountable.

#Russia targets #Ukraine infrastructure as explosions hit Russian bases;

atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atla…
Russian forces targeted infrastructure in #Kyiv, #Odesa, #Vinnytsia, #Sumy, & #Zaporizhzhia. That same day, Ukrainian forces shot down 60 of 70+ Russian missiles. However, data suggests that Russia is not striking Ukraine w/ the same intensity as at the beginning of the invasion.
Earlier this week, several people were killed in explosions at two Russian military airfields. Russia accused Ukraine of using a drone to strike Russian targets hundreds of kilometers from the border. bbc.com/news/world-eur…
