There is talk that the Ukr CinC Zaluzhny & Zelensky had a meeting during which the withdrawal from #Lisichansk agglomeration was discussed.
The only feasible way is going by the road to Seversk which is not physically cut but can be shelled from Rus held territory

Some reports say the Ukr have left the southern industrial zone in #Liman which is their last position.

N. Donbas area.
Ukr Command reportedly has a plan to create a fortified zone centred on #Slavyansk-#Kramatorsk & #Bakhmut (Artemovsk) as well as smaller towns in that zone, They plan that every fortified point would be able to provide covering artillery fire to each other
๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ
The powerful Rus force in the #Izum bulge could be a serious threat to that plan by launching attacks from rear of the proposed fortified area.
That group is likely waiting for the resolution of the battle for #Liman before making any serious moves

โ—๏ธStarting a new "World War Z" thread.

Last one ends here
โ—๏ธAfter a pause of several days, NATO chose to launch an attack on a Kursk (Khalino) airfield with ATACMS missiles. To distract and overload the air defense system, the attack involved drones also. Unfortunately, not all missiles were shot down.

โ—พ๏ธThe Khalino airfield in the Kursk region, is one of the sites where reinforced concrete shelters are being built at a rapid pace.

โ—พ๏ธBased on the published footage, it looks like 2 missiles got through and released their cluster munition payload.

โ—พ๏ธThe exact damage caused is unknown at the moment, although it's reported that combat aircraft were moved from the border airfields and relocated further inland a while ago.
The following is a summary from several opinion type pieces

Objectively, NATO countries and the bloc's leader, the United States, have two basic options for further action:

1. Raise the stakes and continue using Western missiles on the "old" territory of Russia,

2. Abandon this and return to the previous framework of the conflict in Ukraine.

However, the second option is an admission that Russian deterrence has worked, which means significant image loss for the West.

Western missile strikes on the "old territory" have continued. Either the United States does not believe in Russia's use of force against the North Atlantic Alliance, or the outgoing Biden administration has decided to actually start a war in Europe, a scenario which it sees as favorable for the US

Therefore, the choice facing Russia is now extremely simple.

The first scenario is one in which Moscow relies on defeating the enemy on the front where it is doing well, and does not respond.

Then the level of escalation from the opposing side will increase. The next targets could include the HQ of the SMO command in Rostov-on-Don or the Black Sea Fleet base in Novorossiysk or the Crimean Bridge again.

The second scenario is Russia raising the stakes, that is, a more powerful response than the non-nuclear test of "Oreshnik". A response that could be limited to the territory of Ukraine OR expand into NATO countries.

The Russian leadership has a lot of options for action, and here it is a question of exclusively political will. Although for some reason the West does not believe the Kremlin will escalate to a level causing a large scale direct clash.

Let us also add that if the first scenario is chosen, new types of Western missile weapons may appear in Ukraine and Moscow and St. Petersburg may be under attack.

The use of a "dirty" nuclear bomb by the enemy is also a possibility

The Naval drone theory is seen as the most likely explanation due to no air raid alarm and the nature of the damageโ€ฆ https://t.co/oPbRlDGfWztwitter.com/i/web/status/1โ€ฆ
