Russia will use the time until US military aid arrives to step up its ground and air attacks on Ukraine over the next few weeks.

Axar.az informs that CNN reported this with reference to three officials familiar with the intelligence information.

The sources said that Russia is trying to make the most of the time between the approval of the US military aid package to Ukraine and its actual arrival on the front:
