News Summary

• Russia's invasion has been a brutal, grinding battle with little change to the front lines in recent years.
• Ukraine has been slowing Russian advances, striking targets Moscow once treated as safe, and regaining some ground.
• New drone types are allowing Ukraine to hit areas Russia once considered safe, including depots, vehicles, air defenses, and supply routes.
• The goal is to isolate parts of the battlefield, making it harder for Russia to move troops and supplies where they are needed."What we're currently seeing is a new phase of the war," Kateryna Stepanenko, a Russian warfare expert at the Institute for the Study of War, a US-based think tank, told Business Insider.
