Russia has given up in the north around Kharkiv and retreated.
in the east it looks like they have slowly advanced.
Will this lead to encirclement? Perhaps - but as you see in the map below, they've been trying to do this since March 2022 and failed.
Is it a breakthrough? No. Is it a Russian victory? a minor one, yes.
Can they translate this to something more? Well, that depends.
Your information is quite dated.
Might want to get unpdated.
They have cut off quite a group of Ukrainian fighters-estimates vary from 6 thousand to over ten thousand.
As usual, the Ukrainian general staff has ordered them to stand fast..help is on the way.
RRRRRIGHT! Just like they did in Mariupol.
These are the most stupid, ignorant, dumbest generals I have ever seen on both sides.
Absolutely incapable of strategic thought.
But Zelensky will get up and tell those supplying his forces to get F*CKED when they suggested he might want to consider ceding territory before he loses it all. Then turn around and beg for more money.
He is going to get his cash cow cut off as a result of his snide arrogant comments the other day.
