At the same time, the Kremlin is most concerned about the approach of the front to Luhansk region.
In recent days, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have advanced across the river Oskil up to 20 km into the Russian defense zone to the supply hub of the city of Svatove. Now, Ukrainian formations are quite likely to attack the key Svatove-Kremin road, which will further complicate Russia's ability to replenish the supply of its units in the east, according to the Ministry of Defense of Great Britain.
According to analysts, Ukraine continues progress in offensive operations on both the northeastern and southern fronts. In the northeast, in the Kharkiv region, the Armed Forces consolidated a significant area east of the Oskil River.
“Politically, Russian leaders are likely to be concerned that leading Ukrainian units are now approaching the borders of Luhansk Oblast, which Russia claimed to have officially annexed last Friday,” the report said.
The illegal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine is continuing.
