"Ukraine's Ammunition Crisis: Russian Advances and U.S. Funding Delay"

Russian forces are advancing along the front line in Ukraine, with a focus on the Avdiivka area, as they prepare for a renewed push in the summer. The Institute for the Study of War's maps illustrate the ongoing offensives and Russian advances in Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts. Ukraine is working on fortifications, including anti-tank ditches and infantry fighting positions, but concerns remain about the pace of development. Despite Ukraine's efforts, Russia is expected to continue its offensive operations through spring to exploit Ukrainian equipment shortages before Western security assistance arrives.
