**Ukraine Unleashes New Tactics to Counter Russian “Banzai” Attacks**
In a bid to counter Russia’s high-speed assault tactics, Ukraine has begun training its troops in rapid-fire attacks and quick withdrawals. Dubbed the “assault bikers,” these Ukrainian forces are designed to strike quickly and then vanish, leaving Russian forces struggling to respond.

This represents a significant increase in losses over the past month alone.
