re: Latest Updates: Russia-Ukraine Conflict

From what I have been reading the Russian military bloggers are well and truly concerned about situation around Lyman. Russian forces there may have to decide between fleeing before they are encircled (leaving behind heavy equipment) or staying in place and potentially being wiped out.

Down near Kherson the Ukrainian military seems content to continue limited attacks while hitting Russian logistics. Ukraine is playing it conservatively there by trying to limit their casualties while wearing the Russians down. I suspect their goal is to weaken the Russians in the area enough that when that the Ukrainians do drop the hammer Russian defenses will collapse like they did in the Kharkiv counter offensive.
