Der Militärhistoriker Torsten Heinrich analysiert im Podcast „Thema des Tages“ die streng geheime ukrainische Offensive namens „Operation Vivaldi“. Demnach gelang es der Ukraine, im Donbass unbemerkt Gebiete zurückzuerobern, den nördlichen Arm der russischen Umfassung des wichtigen Festungsgürtels zu zerschlagen und die russische Logistik schwer zu treffen. Dabei setzte das ukrainische Militär unter anderem auf eine sogenannte „Beuteltiertaktik“ mit Bodendrohnen. Laut Heinrich leiden die russischen Streitkräfte unter starren Autokratiestrukturen und Falschmeldungen in der Befehlskette, wodurch die Führung teilweise den Überblick über den tatsächlichen Frontverlauf verloren hat.
