Selenskyj behauptet, die ukrainische Armee habe russische Angriffe weitgehend abgewehrt

Statements like this always need to be taken with context. Leaders tend to highlight successes to maintain morale, especially during prolonged conflicts. Even if some attacks were slowed or stopped, it doesn’t necessarily mean the overall situation has stabilized. Wars usually shift tactics rather than stop outright. It’ll probably be more telling to watch independent reporting over the next few weeks to see whether this reflects a lasting change on the ground or just a temporary phase.

Ukrainian army has finished their defence missions and relocated to better defensive positions

A silver lining after the terrible events happened in Huliapole, Siversk and Vovchansk. Ukraine seems to have successfully formed new defense lines to stabilize the situation.

If you look at the frontline map here (this is personally the best map I’ve found due to them citing and proving the locations of videos released from Ukraine) [https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?mid=1xPxgT8LtUjuspSOGHJc2VzA5O5jWMTE&ll=47.93429027978137%2C36.61027800695101&z=10](https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?mid=1xPxgT8LtUjuspSOGHJc2VzA5O5jWMTE&ll=47.93429027978137%2C36.61027800695101&z=10)

You guys won’t notice anything but there’s been a very marked slowdown in those little dots moving in the past week. There’s simply just not a WHOLE lot of activity compared to the last few months where, especially around Prokrovsk, there has been just constant video and picture evidence of a slow Russian advance.

Not in the last week though. Just kinda quiet comparative to the last few months of constant slog. I check this map every day, it is updated regularly. Big shout out to those taking part with Project Owl, they do a fucking amazing job.

Just finished reading The Moon is Down by Steinbeck, they should really take notes on how they were able to overthrow the conquerors in the captured cities.
