#Severodonetsk Update - #Russian troops have captured the village of Shchedryshcheve directly N of and adjacent to the city. #Ukrainian forces retreated into the city and abandoned defenses around the N outskirts in the forests. #UAF has taken up second line defenses in the city. pic.twitter.com/e0xREa1umS

Right now the situation around Popasna, in Luhansk appears the most concerning for Ukrainian forces. Russian troops have dedicated a lot of effort to that axis, and have apparently been able to break through quite far into Ukrainian lines. pic.twitter.com/LLAjPOBre1

#Popasna Update - There is a growing risk that #Russian forces around Popasna may be gaining momentum against #Ukrainian defenders in the area. Today #Russia captured Nova Kamyanka, Stryapivka, Volodymyrivka, Trypillya & Druzhba to the W and Troitske to the S of the city. pic.twitter.com/zoSF03H5Og

#Russian forces moved the front line 7mi/11km W in one day. #Ukrainian forces in the area are severely outnumbered and taking heavy losses in the fighting. #Russian forces are seeking to cut the main supply route to #Severodonetsk city by capturing Bakymuts'ke and Soledar. pic.twitter.com/fB15mG1Gku

This is not the only supply route to #Severodonetsk, but it is the shortest & fastest currently available. Should this route fall to #Russia, #Ukraine will be forced to prioritize the defense of the remaining route, as well as send supplies & troops to the slower & longer route. pic.twitter.com/Wyil3gZSzX

#Kherson Axis - No confirmed change in terrain control along this axis today. #Russian & #Ukrainian troops continue to improve defensive positions and shell each other's positions. The #Russian head of #Kherson announced today that #Kherson would soon become part of Russia. pic.twitter.com/jN7oGBZdHa

Southern Axis - After weeks of stalemate, #Russian forces have captured the villages of Novodarivka, Pryyutne & Stepove. #Ukrainian troops have been attempting a counterattack near Neskuchne recently but have been repelled by #Russian forces. pic.twitter.com/wnSofRl6vq

#Mariupol Update - Despite the announcement late on May 16, by the #Ukrainian President #Zelensky, the #Azov Regiment Commander Denys Prokopenko and the #Ukrainian MoD, combat appears to be ongoing at #Azovstal. The #Ukraine GenStaff announced more shelling and airstrikes today. pic.twitter.com/UGSnytUqlO

#Kharkiv Axis - #Russian troops have attacked and recaptured Ternova and Rubizhne NE of Kharkiv after intense fighting. #Russia has remained intent on keeping a buffer between #Ukrainian troops and the #Russia/#Ukraine border. This assault is meant to restore that buffer. pic.twitter.com/c3q2XpqDMu

Today the Russian fascist invaders fired on civilians in Pryshyb, Hrushuvakha and Bohorodychne. Near Severodonetsk, the rashists carried out assaults, suffered losses, and retreated; fighting continues near Toshkivka. Attacks from Popasna failed as did an attack on Oleksandropil. pic.twitter.com/lztXFAb2eW
