End of Operation 'Vivaldi'. Russians are losing on further sections of the front

The American Institute for the Study of War reports that the Russian army is struggling on the battlefield, particularly as Ukrainian forces thwarted its plans in the Donetsk region. The ongoing Vivaldi Operation has pushed Russian troops from areas north of Lyman to the Zherbiec River. Despite rumors from the Russian side, analysts cannot confirm that Ukrainian forces have crossed the river and are advancing further.
