The situation on the front in Ukraine

The Russian Federation continues to pressure the Ukrainian front, rapidly capturing territory. The Donetsk and Sumy regions are under particular attention from the enemy.

Ukrainian forces feel the pressure, especially between Pokrovsk and Toretsk. Nevertheless, Russian forces are feeling less confident in the Sumy region.

«Fighting and negotiating at the same time is Russia's style,» comments Samuel Charap, a senior political analyst from the visiting security organization.

Even Ukraine's Deputy Defense Minister Oleg Polunin stated that Russia may try to create a buffer zone in the conquered territories.

Russian troops continue to attack the Ukrainian front, using their own tactics and favorable conditions. The Ukrainian side remains ready for defense and to stand up for their territory amidst the enemy's aggression.
