Russia and Ukraine plan new offensives
The front lines, which stretch for
more than 1,000 kilometers in eastern and southern Ukraine
, have been virtually frozen for two months despite heavy losses on both sides.
Russia and Ukraine are believed to be planning further offensives, Reuters reports.
Ukrainian President Zelensky said Russia was intensifying its
pressure on Bakhmut
, an industrial city in eastern Ukraine that has been the focus of heavy fighting.
"They want to increase the pressure on a larger scale," he said.
Russian President Vladimir Putin presents the "special military operation" that began when
his troops invaded Ukraine on February 24
last year as a defensive and existential battle against an aggressive and arrogant West.
Ukraine and the West characterize Russia's actions as unprovoked land grabs to subdue a former Soviet republic that Moscow views as an artificial state.

Ukrainian President
Volodymyr Zelensky has
again pressed the Western allies to provide their latest main battle tanks, saying in his latest late-night video address that
"discussions must conclude with decisions."

The shipment of Leopard 2 by Berlin is pending official confirmation while Washington is expected to announce the shipment of M1 Abrams this Wednesday.
Moscow has warned that supplying Ukraine with modern offensive weapons will escalate the war, and
some Russian officials have warned that Kiev's allies are leading the world into a "global catastrophe
. "
Moscow has repeatedly claimed that it is fighting the collective West in Ukraine.
