Abstract
The slow advance of the Russian army in Ukraine in the first stage of its invasion and its eventual withdrawal from the Kyiv and Zhytomyr regions in April 2022 has raised several questions among analysts. Although this situation can be explained by numerous factors, this research note highlights how the Russian military’s organization of its logistics and resupply around railways has played a significant role in its failure to achieve the Kremlin’s initial objectives.
