Russia does not have sufficient forces to make a strategic breakthrough in the Kharkiv region, NATO's Supreme Allied Commander has said.
Does Russia have the strength to make a breakthrough in the Kharkiv region?
Speaking after a meeting in Brussels, NATO's supreme commander in Europe, Christopher Cavoli, said he was confident Ukrainian forces would be able to hold their ground in the northeastern region, where Russia launched a surprise new offensive nearly a week ago.
Christopher Cavoli also stated that "serious improvements" in the ammunition situation in Ukraine are expected in the near future.
The head of the NATO Military Committee recognised the difficult situation for the Ukrainian army, saying that the delay in arms deliveries had led to negative consequences.
