Russian troops went on the offensive in the Donbass along a common front of 70 km.

Bild writes about this with reference to Finnish expert Emil Kastehelmi. “The Russians recently launched a major offensive east and south of Donetsk on a 70 km wide front. This strike broke through Ukrainian defenses in many areas in just a few days. The overall situation is very alarming, and Ukrainians are exhausted. The coming winter is likely to be difficult,” the expert said.
