Germany is actively preparing for potential war scenarios, as revealed in a secret document cited by The Telegraph. German army leaders are developing plans to support American soldiers moving toward NATO’s eastern front, including logistics for refueling tanks and feeding troops.
In an interview with German newspaper Faz, Bundeswehr Lieutenant General André Bodemann highlighted the importance of civil protection in the army’s long-term security plan. While details of the planning remain classified, General Bodemann emphasized the need for civilian contributions to sustain thousands of American soldiers in a conflict scenario.
The focus of the planning process is on coordinating logistics for large numbers of soldiers and equipment, with civilian services expected to provide essential support. The Red Cross would offer medical assistance, and civilian catering services would supply food for troops. General Bodemann’s statements underscore Germany’s readiness for war in the face of potential conflict with Russia within the next five years.
Meanwhile, Russian forces are making tactical moves near Avdiivka and Chasiv Yar in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine. The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reports that the operation to capture Chasiv Yar holds the greatest potential for Russian forces. While Russian forces may gain ground near Avdiivka, the ISW believes that a significant breakthrough in that area is unlikely.
Recent attacks on Ukrainian military personnel by Russian armed forces at the Balakleya railway station in the Kharkiv region have raised concerns about escalating violence in the region. The situation remains volatile, with both sides maneuvering for strategic advantages in the ongoing conflict.
