Ukrainian troops have pulled back from several of the villages captured by Russia’s army in the eastern Donetsk region in recent days, as Russia continues to exploit its advantage in men and munitions.

The advance of the Russian army in Donbas has revealed the vulnerability of the AFU positions. Moreover, according to analysts, there is a probability that with further pressure from the Russian Armed Forces, the Ukrainian front line will collapse. Russia has not yet managed to realize a large-scale breakthrough, but it is making gradual progress in establishing control over Donbass. Moreover, its troops are approaching the "big prize" - Chasov Yar and Pokrovsk, which will put the AFU's key positions in the region under threat.

The head of Georgia's ruling Georgian Dream party and de facto leader of the country, Bidzina Ivanishvili, has made harsh statements on the war in Ukraine and against the West. At a rally in Tbilisi, he said that "supporters of the global war party are using Georgia and Ukraine as cannon fodder against Russia." The rally itself is in support of the law on foreign agents, which the ruling party is pushing through despite criticism from the opposition and Europe. Kakha Kaladze, the mayor of Tbilisi and former Dynamo Kiev soccer player, said at the rally that "the West, through NGOs and NPOs, has been trying to tell the people of Georgia that 'black is white and LGBT propaganda is good'." "It cannot be that NPOs and NGOs are trying to organize a revolution, and the Georgian government could not even know about the sources of their income," he said, supporting the draft law on foreign agents.

NATO has suffered a number of failures in supporting Ukraine and must reconsider the mechanisms for providing this assistance - Alliance Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg to Reuters Ukraine's trust in NATO allies has been "shaken" by delays and failures in arms deliveries for the war against Russian invasion, NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg said. He cited the U.S. Congress, which took six months to pass a $60 billion aid package for Ukraine, and European countries that delivered far less artillery ammunition than promised as examples of NATO allies falling short. These shortcomings had a serious impact on the course of the fighting, as Russia gained the initiative and Ukrainian troops, starved of ammunition, were forced to defend themselves.
