The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) noted Ukraine’s continuing preparations for its counteroffensive in its assessment on Saturday, including the interview with Volodymyr Zelenskiy published by the Wall Street Journal in which he says the country is ready, though it may take time and come at a heavy cost.
