alternatives to Second Winter Campaign[edit]

The latest phase of the war is currently called

Second winter campaign

"Second winter campaign" is confusingly the title of an article related to Ukraine, but about an historical event. When the description "Second winter campaign" was added a few days ago I remembered that as the title of the new split article. So, when I wanted to find the latest section of the timeline during my next visit to Wikipedia I searched for that phrase. I arrived at the article with the title "Second winter campaign" and was very confused for a bit because it has little to do with current events, but does concern a war in Ukraine.

A different phrase is needed to avoid this confusion.

Some alternatives to consider:

Third stalemate

or

2023-2024 winter stalemate

or
