“'They’re trying to basically consolidate their gains and keep the parts that they’ve held on to thus far,' . . . 'I think it’s definitely both a message to soldiers in Ukraine, and to everyone who might be watching, that they’re going to at least try and stay.'” -  Brady Africk.

Offensive and counter-offensive both!

"Putin’s Pre-Emptive Strike Plan Exposed in Satellite Photos"

From www.yahoo.com by Shannon Vavra  original story "The Daily Beast" January 27, 2023.

"Russia is building up a network of fortifications and trenches along the front in Ukraineation, in apparent anticipation of a new round of heavy fighting, according to satellite imagery analysis shared exclusively with The Daily Beast."

"The analysis from Brady Africk, an open-source intelligence analyst, shows that Russia is building up fortifications all along the front in Luhansk, from the Russian border down to Donetsk, and throughout Zaporizhzhia and Kherson."

"The satellite imagery indicates that Moscow may be on edge about a Ukrainian counteroffensive in the coming weeks—or may even be preparing its own offensive to try to seize more Ukrainian land, nearly one year into the war."

Correct! During the Second World War on the Eastern Front from at least 1944 till the end of the war [and maybe well before that] the Soviet Red Army even while on the OFFENSIVE famous for their massive construction of anti-tank fortifications and "stop lines". Barricades and bastions consisting of anti-tank obstacles, anti-tank mines, anti-tank ditches and specially sited anti-tank gun firing positions. 

FORTIFICATIONS/BARRICADES/BARRIERS/BASTIONS THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE TO CONSOLIDATE CAPTURE TERRITORY. DONE TO A DEPTH OF FIFTY MILES [EIGHTY KILOMETERS].

As in the Great Patriotic War as now in Ukraine!
