Since the end of the Cold War, the Russian military approach has been developing alongside its evolving strategic challenges. The period under study (1991-2020) is important for Russia as it witnessed its Western rivals' transition from the Cold War to Global War on Terror and the one of Great Power Competition. Western interference in Russia's neighbouring countries and the surfacing of colour revolution against autocratic states were concerning to the Russian Federation. This study intends to probe the Russian approach to urban warfare in the context of new strategic challenges, since the end of the cold war 1991-2020. In this research, the Russian strategic challenges and threats, and the evolution of Russian military doctrine and thinking pertinent to fighting in the urban areas will be explored. The research will analyse the efficacy of the Russian Military's 'New Generation Approach' in contemporary urban battlespace as demonstrated in recent conflicts.
