Looking at the Google Russo-Ukrainian war map, I see some very important developments happening

that I don't see being reported by MSM

- On the eastern front, the Lyman encirclement of Russian troops is almost complete. The only rout of escape (towns of Torske and Zarichne) just became the front line as i was typing this. There are estimated 3000 Russian troops in the Lyman pocket, and they are screwed: none of them can escape now.

-Also on the Eastern front, the front line has crossed into Luhansk Oblast in several locations. This is a big effing deal because Russia has been claiming complete control of the Luhansk Oblast. Not anymore!

-On the Southern front: while Ukraine's advances from the north are not as sexy as a frontal assault on Kherson City, it is slowly pushing Russian troops towards the Dnipro river. Once Russians are pushed across the river, Ukrainian defenses in the Oblast become invincible. A huge loss for the Russians.

Being on the other side, and there’s Poopin telling his troops there and in Lyman they cannot retreat. Such a deadly move on his part.
