Ukraine halts Russia's Pokrovsk offensive, retakes part of New-York
....."Russian advances in the Pokrovsk direction are critical to the Kremlin's long-term informational efforts to convince the Russian public—and the international community—that Russia's large-scale personnel losses and ineffective attritional style of warfare are effective and justified," she said.
Evans continued, "Ukraine's ability to slow Russian advances, and even stop Russian advances in some areas of Donetsk Oblast and Ukraine, directly undermines this effort and generates counterfactual evidence that Ukraine—when properly resourced—can halt Russian offensives and that Russian victory is not inevitable despite Russia's resource advantages."
She added that Ukraine's defensive operations in Pokrovsk and the wider Donetsk region complicate the Kremlin's objective to "seize the remainder of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts" and effectively "erode the Russian people's willingness to support a highly attritional protracted war indefinitely."
