If the reports are true that Russia is pulling out of Novoprokopivka


It's confusing, because Novoprokopivka is due south of Robotyne, and yet, other reports say that Ukraine is assaulting in the direction of Verbove, which is to the east-southeast of Robotyne (which is what I assumed in my map earlier, and Big Serge did as well).





More evidence that Ukraine is through the first line of defenses (the minefields). They were able to move east then swing back back south and west and flank the Russians. That forced the Russians to pull out of Novoprokopivka in a hurry. That makes sense since the 82nd AAB recently completed their training in the UK.

I'm not claiming that this is what has happened, but it would make sense. If Ukraine attacked southeast and broke the 2nd Russian line just southwest of Verbove, then they could just roll up on both sides of that line, and the Russians defending Novoprokopivka would be in danger of getting trapped, so it would make sense that they would retreat.
