Ryssland startar våroffensiv. (Mars 2026)

Hur har det gått med denna "våroffensiv" som fortfarande tordes pågå, eftersom inga uppgifter om ändrade planer eller militära mål kommit från varken kreml, FSB eller ens presidenten själv? Har den lett till någonting?

Nearly four and a half years after Vladimir Putin launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russia's frontline advances have slowed almost to a halt as Ukrainian counterattacks and defensive tactics become increasingly effective.

According to reports, many residents in Moscow’s outlying suburbs learned of the attack only when they saw drones flying overhead.

“No SMS at all, no sirens. All the information is in local chats – there’s a lot more there than on TV,” a Moscow resident said in a message to the independent, foreign-based Russian news site Meduza.

Russian defence ministry says its forces captured Kostiantynivka in eastern Ukraine

Kreml påstår att de intagit Kostiantynivka.

Det nekas starkt av Zelensky och ukrainska militären.

Ukraine Denies Russian Claims of Capturing Kostiantynivka

In brief: The Ukrainian Defense Forces have refuted claims made by Russian President Vladimir Putin that Russian troops have fully captured the city of Kostiantynivka in the Donetsk region. The Ukrainian military’s “East” command and the General Staff confirmed on Saturday that the city remains under Ukrainian control, though urban combat and defensive operations continue on its approaches. Ukrainian officials characterized the Russian statements as an attempt to project battlefield success amidst operational difficulties.

Till sin höjd kan man säga att Ukraina har tappat betydande kontroll men att de fortfarande besitter staden.

DeepState: The situation around Kostiantynivka is unfolding according to the worst-case scenario

Russian forces, according to the OSINT project DeepState, have reached the outskirts of Kostiantynivka (Donetsk region) from multiple directions and are actively pressing and infiltrating deeper into the settlement, while also turning the city into a total ruin.

“The situation around Kostiantynivka is developing in the worst-case scenario, as the Russian forces has effectively reached the outskirts of the city from all sides and is carrying out active pressure and penetrating deep into the settlement,” the OSINT analysts said in a Telegram post on Tuesday

Läget försämras stadigt i Donetsk.

DeepState's Pohorilyi explains Russia's 'controlled chaos' tactics near Kostiantynivka

– First of all, it is important to understand that Kostiantynivka remains under the control of Ukraine's Defense Forces. However, the situation cannot be described as easy because Russian forces continue to infiltrate the city.

They have fully established positions on the outskirts. They have reached the settlements of Berestok and Lynivka and are now trying to push toward Novodmytrivka. From there, they are attempting to move directly into Kostiantynivka itself.

Deepstate rapporterar att läget inte förbättrats i staden.

Ryssarna hade ju tagit den för flera dagar sedan? Ljuger någon..

Putin påstod väl detta för över 1 vecka sen. Men det är ju inte första gången han blivit lurad av sin militär om framgångar på slagfältet. Man undra om han verkligen är så jävla lättlurad eller om han spelr med för ren propaganda. Det borde vara jävligt pinsamt för väskbajsaren....

Ryssarna tar sig djupare in i Kostiantynivka

"Enemy has entered Kostiantynivka, occupied part of town and established foothold," - Butusov

The situation in Kostiantynivka in the Donetsk region is currently dire. The enemy has managed to enter the town, occupy part of it and establish a foothold there.

This was stated by Yurii Butusov, commander of the UAV company of the 23rd Assault Regiment, part of the National Guard’s 2nd Corps "Charter"

The Russian army penetrates a key Ukrainian defense stronghold

"Kostiantynivka is one of the main enemy advance routes towards the Kramatorsk-Sloviansk axis. That is why the Russians spare no effort or resources. We inflict significant losses on them, but the replenishment of personnel is constant, which is why the situation remains very tense," stated Ukrainian commander Oleksandr Rashevsky

Russia Struggles to Meet 409,000 Troop Recruitment Goal, Ukraine Says

Russia is failing to meet its 409,000-troop recruitment target in 2026, according to Ukraine’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SZRU) on Tuesday.

The SZRU, in a press release, said Russia has filled less than half of that target as of July, with only 195,000 contracts signed compared to the 204,500 target.

The agency added that the daily recruitment rate averaged around 1,070-1,090 troops per day, falling below the daily average of 1,200 between 2024-25.

Rysslands rekryteringssvårigheter verkar inte vara lika djupa som Ukrainas.

Ukraine Rapidly Robotising Frontline Combat Operations to Compensate for Severe Personnel Shortages

he Ukrainian Armed Forces have significantly accelerated the deployment of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) across the front line, as the country seeks to reduce infantry casualties and compensate for increasingly severe manpower shortages by transferring an increasing number of battlefield tasks from soldiers to robotic systems.

Ja, Ryssland ljuger.

Näst berättar du för mig att jultomten inte finns.

Vad Ukrainas egna officerare säger är dock mycket mer intressant.

Det som Ukraina uppger ligger närmare OSINT än det som Ryssland uppger så svaret blir därefter.

Summa kardemumma:
JA, Ryssland ljuger!
