Russian army making Kharkiv uninhabitable, but will not be able to encircle city
Russia is unlikely to launch a new offensive on Kharkiv and encircle the city this summer. The occupiers will focus on another sector of the front, according to the RBC-Ukraine.
Against the background of information leaks about the alleged upcoming Russian attack on Kharkiv, Russian troops intensified their attacks on the city. Reports appeared in the Western media about the Kremlin's plans to turn it into a gray zone. The Russian strikes on Kharkiv have intensified since December, around the time that problems with American military aid began to make headlines. Since then, the city has suffered a large number of Russian rocket and drone attacks. But the attack on March 27 was perhaps the turning point: for the first time the city was hit by a guided aerial bomb launched from an airplane, with great destructive effect. This Russian attack occurred five days after missiles destroyed almost all of Kharkiv's energy facilities. Making Kharkiv uninhabitable is one of the goals of the Russians.
Oleksandr Musiienko, the head of the Сenter of Military Law Researches, is convinced that during a possible summer offensive, the occupiers will focus on the Donbas. The enemy's main efforts will be concentrated in the same directions as now - Avdiivka and Chasiv Yar.
According to the expert, Kharkiv and Vuhledar will be auxiliary or distracting. Thus, the Russians will try to stretch Ukrainian forces.
"That is why I think that the main group will operate in Donetsk and Luhansk regions. I assume that there will be battles and exchanges of blows along the border between the Kharkiv and Belgorod regions. But Russia will not be able to encircle Kharkiv, let alone capture it," added the expert.
Russian forces have intensified shelling of Kharkiv and the region in recent days. Against this backdrop, the invaders have also resumed attacking Ukrainian energy facilities.
The situation in Kharkiv is difficult, with the city under fire every day. There are also power outages in Kharkiv and the region.
On April 8, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting on the situation in Kharkiv, discussing how to defend the city.
