Points of attention
- NATO predicts that Russian troops will face challenges in making significant advances on the battlefield in Ukraine.
- Despite new offensives, Russian forces are encountering resistance and limited success in Ukraine, according to NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.
- Ukrainian armed forces have been victorious in holding the frontline and inflicting heavy losses on Russian forces, both on the frontline and within Russian territory.
- Combat clashes have intensified along the front line, with Ukrainian defenders repelling enemy attacks and destroying personnel and equipment.
- NATO remains vigilant and monitors the evolving situation in Ukraine as tensions continue to escalate.
Russia's new offensive may once again prove to be a failure
Jens Stoltenberg stressed that there is no reason in the Alliance to believe that the aggressor country of the Russian Federation has the capabilities and resources for a large-scale breakthrough or breakthrough.
Russia really launched another offensive in Ukraine during the spring and summer, but so far with only minor successes, noted the NATO Secretary General.
According to his forecast, the Russian army will quite possibly continue to advance along the front line and carry out airstrikes on Ukraine.
Despite this, Stoltenberg emphasises that the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine still managed to hold the front line cannot be ignored.
They were able to continue inflicting heavy losses on the Russian occupiers — both along the front line and with strikes deep into Russian territory.
