Ukraine's military chief on Saturday warned that the battlefield situation in the country's industrial east has “significantly worsened in recent days,” as warming weather has allowed Russian forces to launch a fresh push along several stretches of the more than 1,000-km long frontline.
Last year around this time Russia was advancing every day by the 10s of meters. Now some advances are 1-2 km.
The Ukrainians announcing this means things are a lot more dire than what we’ve been led to believe.
