Quick Glance: Russia-Ukraine War: Moscow Strengthening Arsenal for Winter Offensive

The United Kingdom defense ministry claims that Russia is likely to assemble a significant number of air-launched cruise missiles to strike Ukrainian infrastructure in the coming winter.

Defense intelligence adds that Moscow uses strategic bomber aircraft to release these munitions from deep within Russian territory.

Open source reports suggest that air-launched cruise missile expenditure rates have reduced since April 2023, while Russian leaders have emphasized efforts to increase the production rate of cruise missiles.

There is a realistic possibility that Russia will again focus these weapons against Ukrainian infrastructure targets in the winter.

Quick Glance: Despite the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, cultural life is attempting to thrive.

This initiative aims to revitalise the Ukrainian cultural scene, which is suffering as a result of the Russian invasion.

In times of war, many Ukrainian cultural professionals are mobilising to protect their country's heritage.

Some of them have been collaborating with European art institutions, such as Madrid's Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Basel's Kunstmuseum, and Geneva's Musée Rath, to evacuate Ukrainian works of art, which could have been damaged or looted if they had not been removed to safety.

Some international experts are concerned about the magnitude of Ukraine's cultural heritage threat.
