According to Budanov, the attack is likely to involve airstrikes, artillery and armor attacks before Russia moves in with airborne and amphibious assaults, including in Odesa and Mariupol, as well as a smaller-scale incursion via Belarus which neighbors Ukraine in the north.
The head of the military intelligence agency says Russia’s large-scale Zapad (West - ed.) 2021 military exercises have proved that Moscow can simultaneously deploy more than 3,500 airborne and special operations troops.
