The measures include anti-tank obstacles and ditches, infantry trenches, minefields, and other fortified defensive positions. Further fortifying the front line means that Russian forces can struggle to advance in those areas and achieve any significant tactical gains. Any effort to push forward in more fortified areas would "highly likely be accompanied by high (Russian) losses," the ministry added. Kyiv's stalled...

"Nothing examined during this review demonstrated any indication of ill intent or an attempt to obfuscate," the Pentag...
