The Ukrainian army, which had fought back and forth with the Russian army and often severely damaged the Russian supply line, suddenly discovered that the Russian army's ability to adjust tactics and grow rapidly on the battlefield should not be underestimated.

Putin contracted the front line and took the initiative to withdraw from Kiev and Chernykov, and concentrated its superior forces to Donbas , the battle situation ushered in unexpected changes. The Ukrainian army, which had fought back and forth with the Russian army and often severely damaged the Russian supply line, suddenly discovered that the ability of the Russian army to adjust tactics and grow rapidly on the battlefield should not be underestimated.

took Mariupol and forced the defenders of Azov Steel Plant to surrender, the Russian army won several important towns in the north of Luhansk . Only Lisichangsk and North Donetsk remained in the important towns controlled by the Ukrainian army.

On May 26, the pro-Ukrainian Lugansk military chief Gaidey said that the Russian army attempted to invade North Donetsk, and the Russian artillery and aviation were destroying Ukrainian targets. The Ukrainian army was defending on solid fortifications, thwarting several attacks by the Russian army.

Gaide admitted that as of now, the Russian army has taken over 95% of Luhansk's land, and the situation is not optimistic for Ukraine.

Ukrainian Ministry of Defense said that in Donbas, the intensity of the battle has reached its peak, and the Russian army is dividing its troops into three groups, trying to form a siege against Lisichangsk.

Ukrainian Army Commander-in-Chief Zaruzine said on the 26th that the Ukrainian Army urgently needs weapons and equipment that can fight from a long distance and accurately strike the Russian army.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Kureba stressed that the situation in Donbas was worse than expected and called on the United States and Europe to provide heavy weapons to Ukraine.

Kiev revealed that the Russian army has taken down another strategic location of Donetsk , that is Liman. Under the bombardment of Russian artillery shells, the Ukrainian army deployed in Liman has retreated to Slaviyansk . The 20,000 Russian troops who had fought in Ijium will soon join forces to siege Slaviyansk.

Liman is Ukraine's railway hub in Donbas. Although it is not large in area, it is very important in strategic significance. is the bond connecting North Donetsk and Slaviyansk. The loss of Liman means that the Ukrainian troops deployed in both places will lose contact, and thus fall into a dilemma where the beginning and end cannot be taken into account.

There are at least 3 points to pay attention to when it comes to the battle on the battlefield.

1, unlike the previous emphasis on "the Ukrainian army defeated the Russian army many times", Kiev's attitude has changed. In addition to admitting that the Russian army has the upper hand, Kiev has not forgotten to ask for help from the United States and NATO .

In Zelensky's words, in Donbas, the Russian army has 20 times the amount of equipment that the Ukrainian army will have. In the next few weeks, the Ukrainian army will have a hard time.

In terms of military strength, there is indeed a huge gap between Russia and Ukraine. As for whether it has reached the level of "the Russian military equipment is 20 times that of the Ukraine army", it is still unknown for the time being. The possibility of Zelensky exaggerating the facts is not ruled out, because the Ukrainian army urgently needs a large number of heavy weapons, so there is not much time left for Ukraine.

There is another bad news for Kyiv.

26, after meeting with Putin on Sochi , Belarusian President Lukashenko decided to establish a Belarusian combat command in the Ukraine direction. Lukashenko stressed that the West, led by the United States, is curbing Belarus .

Previously, Belarus revealed that Kiev has deployed 20,000 Ukrainian troops on the Belarusian border, and NATO troops are holding military exercises on the Belarusian border. In case of precautions, Belarusian special forces have rushed to the Ukrainian border.

Although Lukashenko's statement is that NATO is pressing Belarus and Minsk has to take measures to deal with changes in the situation, for Ukraine, it is a bolt from the blue for Belarus to suddenly change its mind.

If Belarusian troops launch an attack from the north, directly approach the city of Kiev, or send troops to western Ukraine, the situation will become more complicated.

Of course, So far, Lukashenko shows no sign of letting Belarus participate in the war, and NATO and Polish are preparing. Once the Belarusian army enters Ukraine, NATO is likely to deal with Belarus for Ukraine. If this scene occurs, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict will spread, and more and more forces will be actively or passively involved.

2, Putin was very patient, the Russian army was suspected of using thermopress bomb , and a large number of Ukrainian troops surrendered. On the 25th, a video of "Russian military attacking Ukrainian positions with warm-pressure bombs" appeared on social media.

During combat, the TOS-1 220mm thermopress rocket launcher will explode twice. After the first explosion, a chemical cloud will appear in the air. The second explosion will cause the chemical cloud to explode violently. Even the Wu army hiding in the bunker and the basement will be difficult to survive.

When besieging the Azov Steel Plant, the Russian army used drilling bullets, and the thermopress bombs were almost useless. However, at present, in order to win Donbas as soon as possible, the Russian army used new tactics.

weapons including Su-57 fighter jets, "Tulip" mortars, Tu-22M3 strategic bomber , and "Terminator" tank have all appeared on the Donbas battlefield. If the Russian army really used the thermopress bomb, the Ukrainian army would inevitably suffer a heavy blow.

26, Luhansk civilian armed forces said that in Donbas, the Russian army captured almost 8,000 Ukrainian soldiers, and the number continued to grow. When the Russian army captured Liman, about 500 Ukrainian soldiers chose to surrender.

Generally speaking, in a state of war, the number of casualties will be many times that of the surrendered. If the Luhansk civilian armed forces did not lie, it would mean that the Ukrainian army paid a huge price in Donbas.

In fact, when the Ukrainian army was not equipped with advanced enough and the Russian army pursued and fought relentlessly, some Ukrainian army had lost their will to fight, and the 2nd Company of the 46th Independent Rifle Battalion of the Ukrainian army chose to escape in the last battle. The Ukrainian army commander called out to Zelensky, saying that the Russian army's artillery is too fierce, but the Ukrainian army lacks supplies such as food, water and medical supplies. The Ukrainian army's weapons are unable to resist the Russian army at all. If resists to the end, all these Ukrainian army will be killed.

Many of the heavy weapon provided by the United States and Europe for Ukraine are still on the way. Ukraine's original plan was to launch a large counterattack against the Russian army after the equipment was formed, but it would take until July. Obviously, Putin will not give the Ukrainian army this opportunity.

3. In order to increase the chance of victory and prevent the Russian army from continuing to advance, Ukraine has tried all its best, including humiliating Germany and threatening EU .

Previously, Andre also humiliated German President Steinmeier. Andre said at the time that Zelensky did not want to see Steinmeier, which made German protesters so angry that they demanded that Scholz expel Andre immediately.

Andre has repeatedly asked Germany to provide heavy weapons to Ukraine, and has repeatedly urged Germany to "act quickly". At this moment, the Ukrainian army deployed on the Donbas front line is facing a difficult situation of dilemma, but Germany's heavy weapons have not arrived yet. How could Andre not be in a hurry?

Ukraine said Kiev has given Hungary and the EU opportunities, but Hungary's appetite is growing.

Ukraine’s implication is nothing more than that if Hungary continues to reject the EU’s sanctions plan against Russia, or target Ukraine, Kiev will be welcome. Ukraine can completely "cut off oil" for Hungary.

Before this, Kiev had stopped some natural gas pipelines that provided energy to the EU on the grounds of "losing control of the northern part of Lugansk", which led to a sharp rise in EU energy prices.

Germany and the EU may not have expected that Russia is playing the energy card against the EU, but Ukraine is taking practical actions and really quarrels.

The reason why Zelensky took dangerous moves was because the situation of the war was not optimistic for Ukraine. If this continues, the Russian army will sooner or later control the entire Donbass. The Donbass cluster of the Ukrainian army may be destroyed. How could Ukraine accept this result?

Ukraine National Security Council said that Russia has changed its tactics and the situation will become very difficult in the next few weeks, but the Ukrainian army has no other choice but to continue fighting. In order to survive, Ukraine must destroy the Russian army ranked second in the world.

If the Russian army successfully takes over Lisichangsk, North Donetsk and Slaviyansk, it will be difficult for the Ukrainian army to reverse the situation because the Ukrainian army does not have the strength to counterattack the Russian army on a large scale. At present, the Russian army has begun to build fortifications in Donbas. Putin's tactics may be step by step. After taking Donbas, he will no longer continue to attack, but will prepare for the incorporation of Donbas, Khlsong , and Zaporoze into Russia.

The battle situation is getting more and more intense, and the challenges Zelensky has to face may still be behind.
