US EditionRussia Launches Spring Offensive in Ukraine Amid Iran War Distraction
Russia's spring offensive targets eastern and southern Ukraine, with over 900 drones launched Tuesday amid stalled peace talks distracted by the Iran conflict, experts say.
- Russia has launched a new spring offensive against Ukraine's eastern Fortress Belt, exploiting global distraction caused by the US-Israeli war against Iran in the Middle East.
- Washington's peace efforts are largely on hold while the White House is "totally distracted by Iran," retired U.S. Navy vice admiral Robert Murrett said, with months of mediated talks producing no breakthrough.
- Moscow and Kyiv traded massive drone attacks on Tuesday and Wednesday, with Russia launching nearly 1,000 drones in a 24-hour period while the Russian Defense Ministry reported shooting down 389 Ukrainian drones.
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Kyiv will "definitely" face shortages of Patriot systems as Washington redirects air-defense missiles from Europe toward the Middle East.
- Fierce fighting continues along the roughly 1,250-kilometer front line, where Gen. Oleksandr Syrskyi, commander-in-chief of Ukraine's armed forces, said Russian forces have made only incremental gains.
