Assistant Analyst Sofia Romansky introduces the forthcoming paper, The parallel front: An analysis of the military use of information in the
first seven months of the war in Ukraine.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 stood out to global audiences, not least by marking the return of large-scale conventional warfare in Europe. Yet, the war between Ukraine and Russia certainly does not take place in solely the physical realm. Rather, in modern high intensity warfare, an ongoing informational battle interacts with and affects the behaviour of people on the ground.

In this upcoming paper by Sofia Romansky, Lotje Boswinkel and Michel Rademaker will look at seven case studies to map the ways in which Ukrainian and Russian narratives developed and interacted. In doing so, we attempt to disentangle the various information influencing tactics employed in the war thus far, as well as draw out key conclusions that must be learnt.
