Russian forces are amassing for a major offensive in the Donbas region, targeting the strategic city of Kramatorsk, according to UK intelligence sources. The assault, expected within days, could determine the next phase of the war. Uncovered satellite images show columns of armour and artillery moving east, while intercepted communications point to a coordinated push.
UK intelligence warns this is a 'critical moment' for Ukraine's defence. The city's fall would sever supply lines and hand Moscow a propaganda victory. Meanwhile, Western money continues to flow into Ukraine's coffers, but questions remain over accountability.
Sources close to the Ministry of Defence suggest Kyiv's forces are outnumbered three to one in the region. The question isn't if the attack comes, but what price will be paid.
