There are reports coming in, both Ukrainian and Russian, that Russian forces have broken through the Ukrainian defences in Soledar and Ukrainian troops are retreating north from the city center. Waiting for visual confirmation/ more information.

Bakhmut & Soledar meat grinder:

Wagner PMC fighters inspecting bombed out trenches in Soledar & Bakhmut report finding a number of letters from Kiev stating "Good news guys, we're winning the battle on Twitter."

This is a wake up call CNN interview with a Bakhmut Ukrainian defender:

"The number of dead is so high that no one is counting them. We don't even have time to remember each other's call signs when new personnel arrive. Why die, if we are going to leave it anyway today or tomorrow?"

More and more sources are now (finally) admitting to the high death toll on the Ukrainian side and the difficulty of replacing the dead and wounded on the battlefield with new and well trained recruits.

Ukraine is on the ropes with no sign that anything will change the current course. The Russians are dismantling Ukraine patiently and systematically and short of direct Western (US/NATO/EU) involvement with boots on the ground there doesn’t seem to be anything at the moment that Ukraine or it’s US/NATO masters can do about it.

The Russians have just reorganized their military command structure and they continue to pour men and equipment into Belarus to be possibly used in opening up new fronts, leaving Ukrainian forces stretched to breaking point if they aren’t already.

Something big is in the making and all the signs are very ominous.
The Russians have given Ukraine and the West many off-ramps up till now, those opportunities have now been taken off the table by the Russians.

I believe Ukraine will be brutally dismembered, probably cut in half with the industrial base, agriculture, mining and port facilities predominantly in Russian hands and the only thing that can stop this is by the West waging a nuclear war against Russia…

Hungarian government demanded that the Ukrainian authorities immediately stop the atrocities against ethnic Hungarians in the Transcarpathian region

Putin layed out the objectives of the operation from day 1, they included the denazification and demilitarisation of Ukraine.

^^^That's what demilitarisation looks like^^^
