There is apparently a video of a Russian tank firing inside Makiivka (Kharkiv region). Is this advance confirmed?

dolgan

Attack on makiivka are recuren since month. Ru never hold it. Wait and see.

Ru have make small progress in North east of kupiansk . Nothing significativ and very slow .

Patrick

In and around Bakhmut, the Russians don’t seem to be advancing any more. Either they can’t or they’ve changed tactics and are bracing themselves for the Ukrainian counteroffensive.

dolgan

Difficult to know. Small local Ukraine counteroffensive slow the movement.

Maybe they concentrate their effort on advivka.

Triglav

But on Liveuamap it seems like they’ve advanced west of the canal at Bila Hora

Patrick

I find Liveuamap to be very unreliable, unlike Deepstatemap.

Triglav

Why?

Patrick

Information is either not updated (e.g. RU side acknowledged their forces were pushed east of Stepove to the other side of the railway track) or incorrectly interpreted (e.g an attack repelled ‘in the direction’ of Lastochkine does not mean RU forces are positioned on the outskirts of that settlement as shown on the map). There are other examples.

INEXORABLE

They are weakened due to high attrition wear … As planned by UKR army….Lock them down around an insignificant city …. What is the purpose to push forward too quickly when you get destroyed by wear and destruction of your supply lines behind ( what is happening now)

Patrick

Attrition perhaps – but I don’t really buy into this “as planned by UKR army” narrative. They would have surely preferred to keep the Russians at bay – say a good 20km from Bakhmut. Now they have no choice but to embark on that counteroffensive where Russia will lose some territory but Ukraine will likely have several times more casualties.

SaskyB

This was exactly the plan, was to slow the advance and inflict as high a casualty rate as possible. Judging by the past few months slowly grinding forward with massive losses I would say that they have done a great job considering the far vaster resources of the Russian army. UKR was losing ground either way, but now it is covered in the blood of Ruskis

dolgan

To keep the lign 20km from bakmut, the price was too expensive.

Ukrain IS forced to nothing.

You Can dont trust thé narrative. But its what they announce month ago and its whats happen.

Triglav

Ukraine has announced a counteroffensive towards Bakhmut. If Bakhmut and Avdiivka don’t fall, then the Russians will be forced to do some retrospective for once

Alfred

They are really good at making announcements, I hope they are at least half as good at implementing them.

Tristan

If Bakhmut and Avdiivka don’t fall, they will say it’s all part of the plan. As usual.

Max Beckhaus

Kiev fail and since lysychanks the epic series of: Kharkiw fail, Kherson fail, energy blackmail fail, energy infrastructure destruction fail, Bakhmut/winter offensive fail.

AlexDi

This whole company is blackmail. For what? Economic and political agreements in the future will give us answers

Taymyr 74

This is Putin’s failed attempt to restore the USSR.
