The Kremlin is downplaying the social and economic costs of the war in Ukraine and inflating military spending. Putin aims to portray the Russian government as committed to social and civilian expenditures and discredit Ukraine and the West for his decision to invade Ukraine. Russia is increasingly investing in its defense industry and expanding its drone, infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs), and aircraft production and shipbuilding capabilities. Russia continues to use chemical weapons against Ukrainian forces and civilians. Ukrainian forces advanced near Lyman, while Russian forces advanced in western Zaporizhia Oblast and near Kupyansk, Toretsk, and Pokrovsk.
