Bakhmut Update 3/25/2023: Beware of Reports Originating from British Intelligence

If Ukraine does call off any offensive to relieve Bakhmut, then the US/NATO plan for an attack on Crimea remains credible. However, the risk of a very large scale Russian encirclement of Ukraine’s forces could force a change of plans.
