Associated PressKYIV, Ukraine — Russian troops were locked in intense battles with Ukrainian soldiers around the embattled town of Vovchansk in northeast Ukraine on Monday, pushing ahead with a ground offensive that opened a new front and put more pressure on overstretched Ukrainian forces.
That makes this period a window of opportunity for Moscow and one of the most dangerous for Kyiv in the, they said. By intensifying offensive operations, Russia seeks to stretch Ukraine's forces thin and forge breakthroughs. Small batches of U.S. military aid have started to trickle into the front line in the form of much needed artillery, said Federenko, whose unit received some of the aid. But it will take at least two months before incoming supplies will meet Kyiv's needs to hold the line, he said. Until they arrive, Ukraine won't be able to seize the battlefield initiative, he said.Russia's offensive seeks to take advantage of this window of time.
Sullivan added that a new influx of U.S. weaponry for Kyiv was expected to be announced by the U.S. administration in the coming days.
