ISW: Hostilities in Ukraine will intensify again after a cold snap in coming weeks

Source: Institute for the Study of War

A daily report from the U.S.-based think tank the Institute for the Study of War says that the overall pace of operations on the front lines in Ukraine has slowed in recent days due to adverse weather conditions, but that the intensity of fighting could grow again in the first week of December.

Troops on both sides are currently bogged down by heavy rain and mud, says the report. But meteorologists predict a cold snap in late November and early December in northeastern Ukraine. This means that the ground will freeze enough to allow for the movement of military equipment and personnel.

However, the ISW report points out that experts do not have accurate information about whether either side is planning an offensive following a change in weather conditions.
