Recent weeks have seen an escalation in attacks targeting enemy infrastructure by both Ukraine and Russia, aiming to weaken economies and undermine public morale. However, the conflict is proving asymmetric, with Ukraine bearing a heavier cost. This is largely due to Ukraine’s lack of ballistic missiles and increasingly limited capacity to intercept incoming attacks. The intensified strikes signal a shift towards a war of attrition, focusing on long-term damage rather than rapid territorial gains. While Russia possesses greater offensive capabilities in this new phase, Ukraine continues to resist despite facing significant challenges. The situation highlights the increasing strain on Ukraine’s defense systems and the evolving nature of the war. This dynamic suggests a protracted conflict with considerable impact on both nations.
