DeepState analysts report a concerning situation in the Lyman direction.
According to information from 'Glavkom', the enemy continues to move in the Lyman area. The situation on the section from Nove to Katerynivka to Nevske is deteriorating, and the enemy continues to advance and has the advantage. The enemy is conducting offensive actions towards Novomykhailivka and is successfully operating in the Nevske area, pushing through Katerynivka.
Analysts emphasize that the situation for Ukrainian defense forces at this section is unpleasant. Ineffective resource utilization by the brigade responsible for this zone, and the enemy's advantage in drones and striking capabilities negatively impact the situation. Russia is achieving success due to the actions of infantrymen who continuously press on the positions of Ukrainian troops.
Experts point out that the situation is rapidly worsening and requires immediate measures. The frontline in this area is in flux. Russian occupation forces intend to focus on occupying the entire Donetsk region, particularly the Lyman direction. The Russians have plans to encircle the Lyman agglomeration, taking into account the important industrial facilities with basements and bomb shelters located in Lyman. According to the Institute for the Study of War, the number of the Russian army in this area exceeds the number of Ukrainian troops by ten times.
