Over the weekend alone, Ukrainian authorities reported about three dozen airstrikes, and a regional governor said Russia was raising “real hell” in the east of the country. “Last week, many talked about the supposed ‘operational pause’ in the actions of the occupiers in Donbass and other parts of Ukraine,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a speech on Sunday afternoon. “Thirty-four airstrikes by Russian aircraft in the past day are a response to all those who came to this ‘pause.’ Analysts at the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War predicted the tactical adjustment last week, and the Russian Defense Ministry appeared to confirm the assessment when it said troops were “taking steps to regain their combat capabilities.” However, analysts warned, such a regrouping does not mean the fighting will stop temporarily. Instead, they noted, Russia will likely conduct “limited offensive operations” to cover up its realignment. “The planning of the Russian campaign, inadequate as it was in general, is nevertheless good enough to manifest this basic principle of operational art,” the institute said. Zelensky and other Ukrainian leaders have incorporated such considerations into their rhetorical rallying cries, arguing that there was no pause but that increased aid could win. “The Ukrainian army is holding firm, repelling attacks in various directions,” he said. “But, of course, a lot more needs to be done before Russian casualties really cause such a pause.”
