Russia’s President Vladimir Putin initially aimed for a swift victory over Ukraine at the front lines, but facing setbacks, is now reportedly employing a strategy of bombing terror. This shift indicates a change in tactics as initial military objectives have not been met. The focus is now seemingly on devastating urban areas across Ukraine, rather than achieving decisive battlefield gains. Experts suggest potential methods to counter this strategy, though details are not specified in this report. This “war of cities” signifies an escalation of the conflict and a deliberate targeting of civilian infrastructure. The situation remains critical as Ukraine braces for continued aerial assaults.
