[US media: Russian troops have launched the summer offensive, with the fastest advancement speed of the year.]

On May 29th, the US "New York Times" pointed out that the Russian army may have initiated the summer offensive against Ukraine. The Russian troops are carrying out actions at the fastest advancement speed this year. "The Russian troops are advancing in the Ukrainian battlefield at an unprecedented speed this year... The Kremlin's summer offensive is obviously fully underway."

The "New York Times" analysis believes that the intensification of the fighting is related to the arrival of the dry season, which traditionally favors large-scale offensive operations. Observers pointed out that Russia may use its military achievements to gain a more favorable position for potential negotiations.

The report particularly emphasized that the current stage of the conflict is characterized by the significant strengthening of the Russian offensive on multiple fronts, but did not specify the geographical location of breakthrough points.

The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed on the same day that two settlements in Donetsk and one residential area in Kharkiv Oblast had been liberated.
