Ukraine has gone through three difficult months, during which Russian forces achieved victories on the front, which are likely to continue until the winter. Newsweek.
“The trend is very worrying and there is no reason to expect the situation to calm down in December,” Emil Kastehelmi of Finland-based Blackbird Group commented to the US publication.

The newspaper said that the heavy losses incurred by Russia did not stop the acceleration of its advance, and “this fall was dark for Ukraine.”
The Russian attack is centered around the Donetsk logistics center Pokrovsk, as well as Korakhovo. Moscow captured Oglidar in October and advanced rapidly towards Velika Novoselka.
“The Ukrainians had difficulty stabilizing the front here for a long time, and in November the pace of the Russian advance there accelerated compared to September and October,” Casthelme told Newsweek.
“Assuming the Russians have enough manpower and equipment for the coming months, they will likely continue to attack aggressively,” Castelme added. “There are no immediate indications that the Russians will run out of energy in the near future.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Kiev may need diplomatic means to liberate some territory controlled by Russia, acknowledging that its army “lacks the strength to do so.”
“We need to find diplomatic solutions,” Zelensky told Japan’s Kyodo News, a shift from Kiev’s previous rhetoric that full territorial integrity is key in any peace deal, amid concerns about what Donald Trump would mean for the United States.
There were successes for Ukraine, which held the Toritsk-Chasov Yar-Siversk direction, depriving the Russians of further advances in the northern Donbass. There was little change on the front in the south in Zaporozhye. Kyiv also managed to inflict heavy losses.
But Casthelme believes that Russian forces are likely to continue their offensive in the direction of Pokrovsk-Velika Novoselka, and may soon seize another 700 square kilometers of territory.
He added, “It is also likely that they will try to penetrate the Ukrainian defenses in Chasov Yar and Turetsk, as this will allow them to advance towards the most important cities that still remain in Donetsk, the first of which is Konstantinovka.”
“However, I believe that most of the operations will be in the south and we may see the beginning of the battle for Pokrovsk in the coming months,” Castelme added, noting that Ukraine suffers from an ongoing problem of manpower shortages.
