What is the situation in Donbas
In almost all directions, the enemy is regrouping troops and trying to attack, however, for the most part, he has no success. In particular, the occupiers want to take control of the territories of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
The Russians are most active in the Slobozhansky and Donetsk directions. In the Severodonetsk direction, a battle is underway for the settlement of Rubizhne.
Until May 9, the occupiers failed to reach the administrative borders of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, as the Chief of the Russian General Staff Valery Gerasimov promised Putin.
NATO believes that the Russian offensive in the Donbass has not yet gained momentum, since the Ukrainian troops are skillfully defending themselves. However, an aggravation may occur in the near future.
The United States also fears that Russia may annex the Donetsk and Lugansk regions and hold a fictitious referendum there sometime in mid-May.
