Ukraine Breaks Russian Line in Donetsk, 7 Towns Freed - Jason Jay Smart

[TexasTowelie]

Ukraine is gaining momentum in Donetsk, retaking seven settlements and more than 160 square kilometers. Ukrainian forces are not only advancing on the battlefield but also dismantling Russia’s ability to fight by targeting its supply lines and convoys. Donetsk is more than territory; it is the vital road network that keeps Russia’s army moving. When those crossroads fall, fuel runs out, artillery falls silent, and convoys become easy targets for Ukrainian drones.

The advance has already broken a fatal Russian bulge in Donetsk, forcing Russian troops into retreat and leaving vehicles stranded along burning highways. Each step forward cuts another depot, delays another reinforcement, and accelerates the collapse of Russia’s ability to sustain its forces. What may seem like small tactical wins are part of a larger cascading effect that is shaking Moscow’s ability to sustain the war.

Beyond the front lines, Russia’s war economy is unraveling. Oil exports are disrupted, banks are under pressure, and corruption is leaving soldiers without the supplies they were promised. These failures are not isolated setbacks but signs of a systemic collapse. Ukraine’s progress in Donetsk is changing the tempo of the conflict and proving that Russia’s grip on occupied territory is weakening. This success in Donetsk matters for Europe, NATO, and the wider struggle for security and freedom.
