Russia’s planned summer offensive in Ukraine has commenced near Kharkiv, with forces advancing into Ukrainian territory.
The move may aim to establish a buffer zone against cross-border attacks and potentially capture strategic areas.
While Kharkiv’s capture would be significant, experts doubt Russia’s ability to achieve it due to insufficient resources.
The offensive’s primary focus may be on Donbas, aiming to cut supply lines and threaten cities like Zaporizhizia.
Despite Russia’s numerical advantage, NATO believes Ukraine can hold the line.
Meanwhile, Putin’s recent remarks hint at a possible return to peace talks, though the situation remains volatile.
