Of the three general perspectives -- 1) pro-Z, 2) pro-P and 3) "not my circus," sides 1 and 2 go at it pretty regularly here in a variety of threads.
My wife and I will see it "over" when it is "over" and whatever the future holds is clearly evident. Before then, the daily salvos fired here in FR are entertaining though.
All the maps I look at see about 500m of a change of positions.
Not really much either way.
“Zelensky is lying,” Prigozhin said on his official social media channels Thursday. “The counteroffensive is in full swing.”

Surprise, Prigozhin!! Its only the 2nd stage. When the full offensive begins, it will be the nasty surprise you were warned about.
East from Kharkiv to Luhansk; South to Orikhiv to Melitopol and Berdanysk; South from Kherson to Crimea. All the while the bulk of the RGF is tied up in one tiny insignificant town.
This is CNN (echo).
May God bless and keep Ukraine and Zelenskyy
But just wait until the ground freezes 11!!
There is ZERO chance that Ukraine takes back and holds any territory.
Fools like you are too stupid or dishonest to admit that the Russian strategy of attrition if destroy the NATO army. Feeding more soldiers into areas where there is certain to be mass causalities for the Ukrainians only plays into that strategy.
Go pleasure yourself by looking at a picture of Ron DeSantis.
Ukraine is working hard to put a brave, heroic face on a bad situation. While the battle over Bakhmut continues to dominate the attention of Western pundits and politicians, the war in Ukraine is raging in other locations, including Zaporozhye, Maryinka, Avdyevka, Petrovskoye and dozens of other cities and hamlets. Russia has ample supplies of men, tanks and ammunition. Ukraine does not. Russia is choosing to fight a war of attrition rather than large scale maneuver. I realize this is frustrating for those arm-chair generals longing for a General Patton to break out of hedge row country and go scampering across France. Apart from the whining complaints from Prigozhin, there is no sign of panic, fear or frustration on the Russian side. The essential question remains — how long can Ukraine hold out?

Ukraine does not have the personnel to sustain a longer war. Nor does the 'west' have any spare weapons that could give the Ukraine a 'decisive advantage'.
