As a result of a strike by HIMARS multiple rocket launchers that Ukraine had recently obtained from the United States as part of security assistance, the Ukrainian forces destroyed Russian command posts in Donbas.
The battle for Sievierodonetsk is one of the most difficult since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the fate of Donbas is being decided there.
Russian troops have become more active in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine and are receiving reinforcements to continue their offensive, but the Armed Forces of Ukraine are doing everything possible to repel enemy attacks.
The battle of Donbas will not be a local operation and will be reminiscent of World War 2 involving thousands of tanks, armored vehicles, aircraft, and artillery.
