A tactical shift by Ukraine will likely make it even harder for Russia to gain new territory in its invasion, an expert told Business Insider.
Ukraine last month announced it was investing nearly $500 million to build fortifications. The New York Times reported these would be along its Russian border and in the eastern Donbas region.
Riley Bailey, a Russia analyst at the Institute for the Study of War, told BI that Ukraine’s defenses will make it “harder for Russian forces to attack head on into entrenched fortified positions. They have already shown routine difficulty in doing this.”
