Regarding the situation in Red Army City and Chasiv Yar, Zelenskyy made a video speech, stating that Russian military reconnaissance and sabotage units continue to infiltrate the Red Army City area, attempting to establish footholds. Currently, the Ukrainian forces are eliminating these infiltrated Russian small units, and the entire Red Army City area is completely under Ukrainian control. As for the Russian claim that they have fully occupied the Chasiv Yar city area, it is false information, a typical tactic of Russia's information warfare. The Ukrainian forces are still holding out in the Chasiv Yar city area, and every Russian attack has been repelled by the Ukrainian forces. The Ukrainian forces have also repelled every Russian attack in Sumy and Kharkiv.
Although Zelenskyy is still being stubborn, one thing is clear: the Ukrainian army is too small to conduct a dense defense in the Red Army City area, leading to Russian infiltration. It should be noted that during the battle for Bakhmut, the Ukrainian forces stationed infantry in every building, and both sides fought for each building, but now due to insufficient conscription numbers, there are frequent gaps in the front line. One thing is certain: Red Army City will not experience a prolonged and intense street fight like Bakhmut, because the Ukrainian forces do not have enough people to fill in. After three years of attrition warfare, the Russian forces have completely gained the initiative on the battlefield. If the Ukrainian conscription numbers do not increase, it is just a matter of time before the Russian forces fully occupy the Donbas region.
