Description:
    "Mathers. This volume offers a comprehensive account of Russia’s failed 2022 assault on Kyiv—considered the war’s most decisive battle. It chronicles the month-long clash from the dramatic airborne attack on Hostomel to Ukraine’s counteroffensives that repelled Russian forces. Drawing on firsthand Ukrainian and Russian sources and open data, it revisits key moments like the controversial Hostomel counterattack and highlights lesser-known actions such as Ukrainian withdrawals and raids in Russian rear areas. Richly illustrated with maps, photos, and original artwork, this book is essential for readers interested in the full scope of the Russo-Ukrainian War, especially the pivotal events of 2022. "
