Can Ukraine Maintain Its Defensive Line This Summer?

The Russian spring offensive is in full swing and may accelerate further as warmer weather makes the ground firmer, while the foliage on trees reduces the visibility of Ukrainian drones. This is reported by The Wall Street Journal.

As noted, Ukrainian forces have managed to stabilize the front line in eastern Ukraine this spring, according to Ukrainian soldiers and analysts in the region. However, the question remains whether Ukraine can continue to maintain its defensive line this summer when military operations typically intensify.

Analysts and Ukrainian officials state that, so far, the Russian spring offensives have inflicted significant losses on the attackers. Yet, conditions are likely to become even more complicated for Kyiv as the weather warms up.
