The number of such raids may increase in the near future.

The former commander of the US Army in Europe, Mark Gertling, suggests that the events in the Belgorod region are a continuance of shaping operations prior to a Ukraine's offensive. He explained on his Twitter account what this means.

The general says the number of such raids, deception operations and demonstrations may increase in the near future.

"These are all military plans and actions that are usually carried out prior to major offensives to deceive the enemy as to where the main strike will take place," he stressed.
