Why Seversk is important?
Seversk has often been referred to as the eastern gate of the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk group," Leonkov, an editor of Arsenal of the Fatherland magazine, says.
The city was also part of the so-called fortress city line – a vanguard of the Ukrainian Armed Forces defense
The enemy now faces serious complications on the eastern outskirts of Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, which are being pressured from the north by Krasny Liman and from the south by Konstantinovka and Druzhkovka
Ukrainian propaganda remains silent about the loss of Seversk - it is "probably the worst news" for the Kiev regime right now, according to the pundit
Now that the city has been liberated, demining and security operations are underway
Cauldrons crushing Ukrainian military might:
While Ukraine suffers from tremendous shortage of manpower, its combat-ready units have been caught in cauldrons in Donetsk, Kharkov and Zaporozhye regions
One is in Dimitrov (Mirnograd), where Ukrainian militants are doomed despite putting up resistance
Another is near Kupyansk, where the Ukrainian military fails to break out of the encirclement
The third cauldron is being formed near Gulyaipole in the Zaporozhye region
