As of January 2025, the situation of Ukrainian front lines and Russia's Kursk Oblast remains fluid with both Kyiv and Moscow troops engaged in intense fighting. This month, Ukraine initiated its second offensive into Kursk, building on the momentum from its earlier operations in August 2024. Meanwhile, Russia continues its multi-pronged offensives across Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson oblasts while leveraging drone and missile strikes to target Ukrainian infrastructure in the rear.
Pivnenko reports that Ukrainian soldiers also hit three Russian ammunition depots along the front line within a day.
