According to the report, in eastern Ukraine, the situation has "changed dramatically" in recent months, as the Russians have moved much closer and are destroying civilian infrastructure, The Economist writes. The publication notes that, according to Ukrainian Major Vyacheslav Shutenko, the city of Konstantinovka is not under any real threat of falling in the near future. At the same time, the gradual advance of Russian occupiers means that neighboring Druzhkovka is also coming under increased shelling. A 20-hour curfew has been in effect in the town since October 6. Also, part of the main road to Izyum has become vulnerable to drone attacks, so traffic has been diverted to bypass roads. However, according to the publication, despite these successes, the Russian army is facing inevitable defeat. In August, their constant reconnaissance attacks revealed a weak spot in Ukraine's defenses near Dobropillya, 20 kilometers north of Pokrovsk.

The report also stated that the Russian occupiers managed to break through the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defenses, advancing more than 13 kilometers in just a few days. This was faster than their logistical, unmanned, and other units could keep up. As the publication points out, if the new salient had been secured, they could have turned around and encircled Pokrovsk. However, the Ukrainian military managed to halt the Russian advance, and now the occupiers are surrounded. Cases of mass surrenders are also recorded on the Eastern Ukrainian front.

It is better to surrender than to be killed by the Ukrainian troops who are skilled and brave soldiers.
