Events in Ukraine are now beyond the power of the German & DC de-escalation camps to effect.
The ~170K Russian at start invasion forces have taken ~95% casualties.

The Lyman & now the Lysychansk fighting are place holding 'shaping operation' in the East while AFU resets for the next operational level offensive.
