It’s over.
Most Ukrainian troops withdrew from #Lysyschansk and six other towns overnight, allowing Russian invasion forces to take over the entire area.
Some forces remained to secure the withdrawal, so we will see new POWs soon.
Let’s hope it was worth it.

The one hundred twenty nineth (129) day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to a russian military invasion continues.
In the Volyn and Polissya directions, according to available
information, the terms of mobilization training in the Armed Forces of the republic of belarus have been extended until July 9 of this year (the previous terms were June 22 - July 1, 2022). As part of the above-mentioned measures, summonses are being served through the military commissariats of the Gomel region. In addition, doctors have been notified of a ban on travelling outside the country.
In the Siversky direction, in order to cover the russian-Ukrainian border in the Bryansk and Kursk regions, the enemy continues to hold up to three battalion tactical groups from the 1st Tank Army, the 20th Combined Arms Army of the Western Military District and units of airborne troops. The aggressor carried out artillery fire damage to the positions of the Defense Forces in the border areas of Sumy and Chernihiv oblasts.
Good information. Thanks Cathi.
What I’ve heard is that many of the Ukraine forces are retreating to the Bakhmut region of the Donetsk oblast. Apparently there are good fortifications there.
The Ukraine forces in Lysychansk know they are caught in a cauldron (mostly surrounded). Better to fight with some space behind you rather than be fully surrounded or be tempting it.
