The Spin
Pro-establishment narrative
With the attention of world leaders on the Israel-Hamas conflict, Putin has resumed his full-frontal assault on Ukraine. Alongside storming Ukrainian positions, Putin is launching missiles, often targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
Pro-Russia narrative
Ukraine's counteroffensive has suffered a huge number of losses and failed to make any meaningful gains. Russia is now conducting "active defense," improving its positions along almost the entire line of contact.
Pro-Ukraine narrative
Russia has launched upwards of 50 attacks in Donetsk and Zaprozhzhia in the last 24 hours — all of which were repelled by Ukrainian forces. These unsuccessful attacks resulted in a large number of Russian losses.
