NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said “we are seeing the start” of a new Russian offensive in Ukraine, with “thousands and thousands more troops” suffering “a very high rate of casualties.” Stoltenberg added that “[w]hat Russia lacks in quality, they try to compensate in quantity,” showing the importance of additional weapons for Ukraine in a “race of logistics . . . before Russia can seize the initiative on the battlefield” and that he saw “no sign whatsoever” that President Putin wants peace. Ukraine and Russia each claimed progress in the six-month fight for Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine; Ukraine destroyed a bridge near the town in an attempt to prevent its capture by Russia before the anniversary of the invasion on February 24. The UK Ministry of Defence estimated that 97 percent of Russia’s army is now in Ukraine and that Russia has also increased its forces in the southern region of Zaporizhzhia, extending its frontline positions to almost 800 miles. The US claimed that about half of Russia’s main battle tanks have been captured or destroyed in combat.
