>As tensions remain high in the Black Sea, skirmishes have taken place between
maritime and air forces around strategically important gas and oil platforms
between Crimea and Odesa. Last week, a Russian combat jet shot at a Ukrainian
military small boat operating near a platform in the north-west of the sea. > >
The platforms are operated by the Chernomorneftegaz company, which was seized by
the pro-Russian occupation authorities in Crimea during the 2014 annexation.
Since Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022, Ukraine has struck several
Russian-controlled platforms. Both Russia and Ukraine have also periodically
occupied them with troops. > > The platforms command valuable hydrocarbon
resources. However, like Snake Island to the west, they can also be used as
forward deployment bases, helicopter landing sites, and to position long-range
missile systems.

>The Ukrainian counter-offensive has put Russian forces under pressure in
Bakhmut and southern Ukraine. Despite this, Russia’s Western Group of Forces has
continued small-scale attacks in the north-east, in the Kupiansk-Lyman sector,
and has made some limited local advances. > > As Ukraine continues to gradually
gain ground in the south, Russia’s doctrine suggests that it will attempt to
regain the initiative by pivoting back to an operational level offensive.
Kupiansk-Lyman is one potential area for this. > >There is a realistic
possibility Russia will increase the intensity of its offensive efforts on the
Kupiansk-Lyman axis in the next two months, probably with the objective of
advancing west to the Oskil River and creating a buffer zone around Luhansk
Oblast.

forces while having limited uncommitted forces to open new assaults.
