Russian Soldiers Come Out With White Flags At Izyum Railway Market
[Charter97] The fact that the fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine entered Izyum was reported by the fighter of the National Guard and the ex-deputy of the Izyum City Council Mykita Karakay.

"The Russian fascists came out with white flags at the railway market in the city of Izyum. In addition, the Armed Forces of Ukraine liberated Kapitolivka and Oskol of the Izyum region," he said.

At the same time, Russian Telegram channels are massively reporting the start of fighting on the outskirts of Lyman. Presumably, the Armed Forces of Ukraine crossed the Seversky Donets river, and went to the villages in the vicinity of the city, deciding to attack the right flank of the Izyum grouping of the RF Armed Forces.

#1 At this point they are effectively encircled. Most are lower quality and militia-level troops, and a lot of support and logistics troops since it was a major supply hub for that region

#3 NYT (paywall) claims Ukrainian forces in control of Izyum.

#4 I visit two sites I semi-trust to keep track of what's supposedly going on in Ukraine. They are:

Some "news" reporting is extremely biased in one direction (Daily Mail) or another (countless!). This is definitely one time I wish I had access to the message traffic I used to take for granted.
