Russian forces continue to advance slowly but steadily in small assault groups, being beaten and destroyed, but having reserves and tactical initiative, so they can concentrate forces in certain important areas and create a significant advantage.

Several our units of the 32nd Mechanized Brigade are deeply flanked and suffer significant losses. The enemy is attacking from several directions. The Russians are also suffering heavy losses, but they have more replenishment, plus a large number of drones and artillery. Our soldiers are holding their positions even in such a difficult situation, but we need decisions from the command.

The command (Colonel Ledovoi) does not make the necessary decisions and does not take responsibility. There is neither an order to withdraw nor to reinforce the flanks with reserves.

What can this lead to? Either to a complete loss of combat capability of our units there or to their encirclement, end result will be the same - a complete loss of positions near and in Toretsk.

It is possible to stop the enemy, but this requires an end to the lies in the reports. To stop the enemy means to organize defense on a reliable line, with open logistics routes. Otherwise, the city cannot be held, and commanders understand this.

If you look at the Deep State map and the map drawn by Censor.net, you can see the threatening development of events. The enemy also understands and sees this.
