TL;DR Summary

Ukraine has received significant support from NATO members in the form of high-tech weapons, including more than 230 Western main battle tanks, mechanised infantry units, and HIMARS precision-guided rocket systems. The UK's recent donation of hundreds of Storm Shadow cruise missiles will also complicate Russian military plans. The Ukrainian military has undergone intensive training in the use of combined arms, and air defence systems have been effective in defending the capital, Kyiv. The coming weeks are likely to see a bloody counteroffensive as Ukraine aims to take back territory Russia took from it in the opening weeks of the invasion in 2022.
