It is difficult to form an objective view of the war. The regular briefings the UK Ministry of Defence and the Pentagon are giving are presumably based on the vast intelligence apparatus at their disposal. But as both nations support Ukraine, they are understandably tight-lipped in their assessment of Ukrainian forces and their tactics.
Meanwhile, both Moscow and Kyiv are engaged in the “battle of the narrative”. Observing the war from outside, then, is akin to watching the latest blockbuster film only through a drinking straw. Nevertheless, it is possible for military experts to sift out a general sense of the main ways that the war’s character is changing, and how it might change in the future.
