About the fact that Putin’s army, apparently, will not abandon attempts to carry out local attacks in these spring months, and will also begin preparations for the next stage of the offensive, planned for the summer of this year, writes NBN, citing ;Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
According to ISW analysts, only military support for Ukraine from a Western country can play a decisive role in the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ ability to hold positions and repel new offensive attempts by the occupiers in the coming months. It is assumed that the “second army of the world” will strive to maintain the momentum of its own offensive operations in all front-line directions, intending to prevent the Defense Forces from stabilizing defensive lines.
