The Red Army City is on the eve of the handover, because with a large number of Russian soldiers pouring into Ukrainian military positions in the Urban area, it has become inevitable that the city cannot be held.
Under such circumstances, Ukraine did not sit still and wait for death, but announced the opening of a new front. In the area north of the Red Army City, the Ukrainian army began to establish a new defense line and continued to seek opportunities to attack Russian-controlled areas.
One of the crucial battles broke out in Dubrovnik, where Russian troops launched the largest offensive since the "autumn offensive" in this direction, according to Ukrainian news, for which the Russian troops assembled dozens of tanks and armored vehicles, and launched two offensives with the chance of wet weather and heavy fog and rain, but these attacks were defeated by the Ukrainian troops.
The Ukrainian side described the battle as the largest Russian military operation in months, which appeared to be to cover up the passive situation of the Red Army City. In fact, the main target of the Russian army was not Dubrovnik, but the Red Army City. The two sides have repeatedly fought around the fortress city for a long time, and now the Russian army is on the Ukrainian army's gunfire, forcing a breakthrough operation on the city area. The Ukrainian side also acknowledges that there have been hundreds of Russian soldiers deep into the city's position and mixed with the Ukrainian military positions, and the two sides have entered the stage of the puzzle.
It is clear that the Ukrainian army was also aware that the Red Army City was already unable to defend, so it hoped to establish a new line of defense outside the city, and to emphasize "victory belongs to Ukraine" through battles such as the "Dobropilia Jets".
In any case, it is impossible for Ukraine to admit defeat. The only possibility is that the Russian army actually occupies the city and the Ukrainian army opens a new front in the suburbs. Both sides fought very tenaciously in this battle. It is estimated that even if the Russian army took over the Red Army City, the fierce confrontation around this city will continue. However, the fall of the Red Army City has further disintegrated the urban agglomeration laid out by the Ukrainian army in Donetsk, which will become a serious situation that Kiev has to face.
