## Prediction

Over the next 7 days, both Russia and Ukraine are likely to intensify their respective systematic strike campaigns: Russia against Ukraine’s power and industrial hubs, and Ukraine against Russian refineries, depots, and logistics. This will deepen the conflict’s character as a long-range, industrialized attrition war with less immediate frontline movement but higher economic damage. Civilian resilience and industrial output in Ukraine will be tested against power disruption, while Russia will have to spend heavily on infrastructure defense and repair. Confirmation would be additional mass strike waves on CHP plants and multiple new fires at Russian fuel assets; a pause in deep strikes from either side due to munitions constraints or diplomatic pressure would pose a counter-scenario.

## Drivers

- Daily brief emphasizing acceleration into a long-range drone and missile contest
- Emerging and escalation trends on both Ukrainian deep strikes and Russian systemic attacks
- Recent hits on Moscow refinery, Ust-Labinsk depot, and Sumy/Okhtyrka plants
- Western defense-industrial ramp-up for a long war posture
