The Sun reports.
"Analysts say Putin is now almost certain to launch a limited strike in the next ten days — which could include an attack on the three-million-strong population of the Ukrainian capital", - the statement said.
According to the newspaper, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson said, "there are 60 Russian combat groups on the borders of Ukraine" and "the plan for a lightning war that could take out Kyiv".
"Satellite pictures showed thousands of troops and military vehicles lined up around the border as camps and field hospitals were stocked with supplies. Putin’s commanders are now waiting for a biting winter cold snap to freeze the ground solid to enable tanks to launch an offensive — as temperatures across Ukraine plunged to -8C last night", - The Sun predicts, checking the weather forecast.

The map shows that Putin's troops may enter southern Ukraine from occupied Crimea.
The publication also cites a statement by the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom that, despite gloomy intelligence, "sense can still prevail ", but any war may be “the new Chechnya” as the Ukrainians will not give in without a fight".
“We need to make it very clear to the Kremlin, to Russia, that that would be a disastrous step. Invading Ukraine, from a Russian perspective, is going to be a painful, violent and bloody business. And I think that people in Russia need to understand that it could be their new Chechnya", - Johnson said.
