As the Ukraine war grinds on: Can either side break the stalemate? | To The Point

DW News published this video item, entitled “As the Ukraine war grinds on: Can either side break the stalemate? | To The Point” – below is their description.

Six months into Russia’s attack on Ukraine, both sides are suffering heavy casualties yet seem unable to gain the advantage. At least until you look behind the front lines. Ukraine is increasingly striking Russian targets deep in Russian-occupied territory and may have been responsible for huge explosions at an ammunition depot and an airfield in Crimea. Fresh shelling of Europe’s biggest nuclear power plant at Zaporizhzhia is meanwhile raising alarm. On To the Point, we’re asking: “As the Ukraine war grinds on: Can either side break the stalemate?”
