A top U.S. general claims the European country's changing weather could hamper Ukraine's counteroffensive.
He explained why the Ukrainian military will struggle to fight during weather changes.
US General Warns Ukraine Military Over Changing Weather
According to CNN World's latest report, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley said the changing weather could make it difficult for Ukraine's counteroffensive.
The top U.S. general said Ukraine still has weeks of fighting its enemies before the weather drastically changes.
"There is still a reasonable amount of time, about 30 to 45 days' worth of fighting weather left," said Milley.
He added that after the period he gave, Ukrainian soldiers would have to deal with heavy rain and mud, which would likely affect their military activities, especially how they maneuver on the battlefield.
Although this is the case, Milley commended Ukraine's effective war strategies. He said that the European country's counteroffensive had achieved very steady progress ever since early July.
"The Ukrainians aren't done, this battle is not done, and they haven't finished the fighting part of what they are trying to accomplish," said Milley.
The American general added that it is still too early to conclude who is the winner in the Russia-Ukraine war.

Why Ukraine is Winning Against Russia
Via BBC News, Adm. Sir Tony Radakin, the U.K. Chief of Defense Staff, explained why Ukraine is winning against Russia.
Since the Russia-Ukraine war is an invasion, Radakin believes Kyiv is winning while Kremlin is losing. He explained that this is because the Russian government is trying to dominate and control the European country.
He added that Russia hasn't achieved its goal, and Ukraine will not allow it. This is why Radakin believes that the Ukrainian government is winning against Russia.
Aside from this, the official also provided an example of Ukraine's success. He stated that Ukraine already recovered around 50% of the territories seized by the Russian military.
