According to The Sun: While Putin's war in Ukraine continues with no signs of ending, The Sun analyzes hidden signals concerning the Russian despot's preparations for an attack on NATO's 'Achilles' heel.'

From transporting blood supplies to flights of Russian spy planes over Western countries — these factors raise serious concerns in Europe.
In his investigation, Ingram carefully analyzes several alarming signals indicating Putin's preparations for an attack on NATO.

The Suvalki Corridor is considered the most vulnerable point; it has been dubbed NATO's 'Achilles' heel.'
This corridor is a narrow strip of land 60 miles long between Poland and Lithuania, which is the shortest distance between the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad and Belarus, Putin's ally.
Controlling this corridor would effectively cut off the Baltic states — Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia — from their NATO allies.
“We are witnessing an increase in the Russian military presence in the Kaliningrad region and Belarus; we observe sudden military exercises and unusual troop movements,” Ingram notes.
The military analyst also explains that potential threats to the Baltic states must be compared to the moments before the invasion of Ukraine.
Ingram also examines hybrid warfare, detailing a series of threatening strategies that Moscow has employed in recent years.
Anything resembling a significant troop buildup on the Ukrainian border before the war in 2022 should be taken as a serious warning sign, he adds.
He also discusses the mass propaganda campaigns regularly conducted by Kremlin agencies to prepare the ground for future attacks.
The geopolitical analyst talks about methods of economic pressure, attacks on communications, and the spread of misinformation in both online spaces and real life.
It may seem boring, but Ingram emphasizes the importance of logistical planning for preparing for an invasion.
He points out that the movement of fuel, vehicles, and other military assets may indicate a possible upcoming invasion.
On Sunday morning, four people, including a baby, died as a result of the largest drone attack in the entire war.
A 32-year-old woman and her two-month-old son were found dead in Kyiv, where dozens of people were injured due to a strike on the main administrative building of the capital.

This tragedy occurred after a meeting between Putin and his Chinese and North Korean counterparts earlier in the week.
The President of China warned that the world will soon face a choice between 'peace and war,' highlighting the intention to establish a new world order together with North Korea and Russia.
The celebration attracted 50,000 spectators, including 26 international leaders, who observed the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in China.
Reportedly, cutting-edge technologies such as laser weapons, hypersonic missiles, robotic dogs, and various modern drones were showcased to send a message to the West.
This comes amid new threats from Moscow, following mass missile attacks using no less than 157 drones and several missiles that struck ten targets in Ukraine.
According to reports, Ukrainian forces were able to inflict significant damage on Russian military and oil installations.
There are also reports of damage to ammunition storage facilities in the Russian-controlled Luhansk region.

These events indicate a continuing escalation of the situation in the region, as well as Russia's readiness for further aggressive actions. It is crucial to monitor developments, as they can significantly impact the security of European states and global stability.
It is important to consider that the conflict in Ukraine has already lasted over a year, and this atmosphere of tension continues to be fueled by incidents such as the latest missile strikes. All these factors raise doubts about the possibility of a swift end to the war and keep the region in uncertainty.
