June 3 update: In the past week, Russian forces gained 54 square miles of Ukrainian territory (about 2 1/2 Manhattan islands), similar to the previous week’s gain of 52 square miles. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s armed forces gained 1 square mile of control in Russia’s Kursk and Belgorod regions, for a total this week of 6 square miles. On June 1, Ukrainian drones concealed inside trucks in Russia attacked and destroyed an estimated record of 11 to 12 Russian strategic bombers. The attack is unlikely to materially alter the course of the conflict, but it does raise questions about the vulnerability of air and naval nuclear weapons delivery systems to drones in countries that possess such weapons.
