Ukraine's counteroffensive gains momentum as Russia's spring offensive stalls

Russia's spring offensive in Ukraine has stalled, with Russian troops making little progress and facing economic strain. The Institute for the Study of War reports the offensive is largely at a standstill, controlling only a fraction of occupied territory. Ukraine is using innovative drones to target Russian fuel production and oil exports. Despite the military and economic pressures, President Putin appears unwilling to end the conflict. Russian officials have warned him that current war spending is unsustainable.
