Putin plans to assemble new forces for offensive in Ukraine in autumn and winter - ISW Russia's leadership is probably preparing to assemble new forces to step up its offensive against Ukraine in the autumn and winter, experts at the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) believe. They point out that Putin's announcement of plans to liquidate an "anti-Russian enclave" in Ukraine, as well as the repetition of old aggressive rhetoric against Ukrainians, indicates that the Russian president has not abandoned his maximalist intentions to take over the entire country. "(The statement) is presumably aimed at creating an information environment to call for further Russian efforts and force building in the autumn and winter of this year," analysts said. 🇺🇦 Ukraine Now

Evening address of Volidymyr #Zelensky: Today, the IAEA mission arrived at Zaporizhzhia NPP. It's good that it happened. The fact itself despite all the provocations by the Russian military and the cynical shelling of Enerhodar and the territory of the plant. Ukraine did everything to make this mission happen. But it is bad that the occupiers are trying to turn this IAEA mission - a really necessary one - into a fruitless tour of the plant. I believe that this will be prevented. When we met with Mr. Grossi and members of the mission in Kyiv, we agreed that the mission would be accompanied by journalists from Ukrainian and international media. Independent journalists. For the world to see the truth. To see what is really happening. Unfortunately, this wasn’t done. Although it was promised. Unfortunately, the occupiers did not let the journalists in, but organized a bunch of their propagandists. Unfortunately, the IAEA representatives did not protect the representatives of independent media. We are hopeful that the mission will nevertheless draw objective conclusions from the circumstances at the plant. And the key thing that should happen is the demilitarization of the territory of the plant. This is exactly the goal of Ukrainian and international efforts. And it is bad that we have not yet heard the appropriate calls from the IAEA. Although we talked about it with Mr. Grossi at our meeting in Kyiv. This was the key - the key! - security point of our agreements. It was clearly stated: demilitarization and full control by Ukrainian nuclear specialists. When the Russian military finally leave the territory of the Zaporizhzhia NPP, when they take away their weapons, ammunition, when they stop shelling Enerhodar and neighboring areas and cease their provocations, the Zaporizhzhia plant will be able to return to a completely safe functioning, which has always been the case under the control of Ukraine. 🇺🇦 Ukraine Now
