| from understandingwar.org very little change in territory held since yesterday some consolidation of Ukraine gains near Kharkiv some minor advances by Russia in center of Donbas; Russia has probed in a half dozen or so spots in past 2 weeks making as much as 10 km of advance in some cases, but each time Ukraine forces have eventually stopped them a hundred sq meters or two or so of additional territory captured by Russia in Mariupol -- Russia seems to want to hold a victory parade in Mariupol on May 9; Does Russia underestimate the forces needed to secure the route??? |
