#Russian operations to advance on #Slovyansk from the southeast of #Izyum and west of #Lyman continue to make little progress and are unlikely to do so in the coming days, as Russian forces continue to prioritize #Severodonetsk at the expense of other axes of advance. Image

NEW | #Russian forces are assaulting #Severdonetsk and may succeed in taking the city and areas further west. Read today’s update from @criticalthreats and @TheStudyofWar: criticalthreats.org/analysis/russi…

#Russian forces in #Kharkiv continue to focus efforts on preventing a #Ukrainian counteroffensive from reaching the international border between Kharkiv and #Belgorod.
