Russia launched a military operation in Ukraine on February 24 this year. At the beginning of the operation, Russia intensified its military operations in the Ukrainian capital, Kiev. But Russia has not been able to occupy Kiev for almost a month. At that time, the Russian forces faced strong resistance from the Ukrainian forces. Russia later said it would focus on operations in eastern Ukraine. Russia’s military operations are now centered around Danbas.
