The more Putie isolates Russia the faster it will crumble. Carry on Putie!
Hey what is the weather like today in Red Square comrade tcrlaf?
Not sure, but you might want to ask your masters in Kiev what they think of losing the entire Southeast of Donetsk today, but for a couple of gov buildings in Severodonetsk. Rebels now control the border from several miles north of Lugansk, all the way south and around to near Moglia now.
The “South Pocket” is no more, and the rebels picked up a BUNCH of equipment, (Including a modernized SA-8 Gecko AA launcher).
In the south, the farthest Kiev penetration is now west of Torez.
Somehow, this doesn’t fit in with the last several week’s Kiev proapaganda, does it!
I should add that all of the above is “Reportedly”
The breakout didn’t go so well, it seems.

Says who???
Ukraine troops break out of encirclement, 15 troops killed

Only 1000 troops got out of the South Pocket, and they left behind almost all of the equipment.
But there were originally 5000-6000, spread over 4 brigades plus supporting natgaurd and Nazi’s. What happened to the rest? Are you intellectually honest enough to even ask the question?

I guess not.
Unsurprising, though.
So then you have no links to the alleged info you posted —
That’s par for your course —
