Russia already seems to anticipate the expected spring offensive. The whole of Ukraine was alarmed by the sound of air raid sirens and dozens of rockets were said to have been fired into different regions of the country. Explosions were also heard in the capital Kiev, Reuters reports based on eyewitness accounts.
Among other things, the missiles hit important electricity infrastructure in the country, reports the operator of the national electricity grid in Ukraine. This would cause power outages in eastern, southern and western Ukraine.
Yesterday, said the famous American think tank Institute for the Study of War already that the offensive in the Luhansk province has begun. He would involve 75,000 Russian soldiers. The governor of the province also specifies that the offensive has already started.
“Millimeters in front and back”

Such a front moves back and forth by millimeters.’
