Foreign analysts say Russia may be temporarily easing its offensive in Ukraine as the Russian military attempts to reassemble its forces for a renewed assault.

On Wednesday, Russian forces made no claimed or assessed territorial gains in Ukraine for the first time in 133 days of war, according to the Institute for the Study of War.

The think tank based in Washington suggested that Moscow may be taking an operational pause that does not entail "the complete cessation of active hostilities."
