According to a report from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), the Russian military command is preparing for a potential offensive in southern and eastern Ukraine during the summer. The report suggests that the scale of the planned operation may be limited.
The information was highlighted by Ukrinform, which cited the ISW analysis. Details on the specific objectives or timeline of the offensive have not been disclosed.
**Why this matters**
Understanding Russia’s military intentions is crucial for assessing the ongoing conflict’s trajectory and potential impacts on regional security. Anticipating offensive actions allows Ukrainian forces and international partners to better prepare defensive measures and diplomatic responses.
