Russia is winning the battle for Donbass in the main sectors of the front. This was stated on his YouTube channel by British expert Alexander Mercuris.
"I have said many times that the fighting is in all these areas (of Donbass. — Ed.) should be understood as battles that take place during one giant battle. These are different places, different locations for which there are battles, but eventually, when this battle is over... we will recognize it as one big battle in which Russian troops have an overwhelming advantage," Merkouris said, quoted by RIA Novosti.
We are talking about the Pokrovsky and Toretsky directions, he noted.
Mercuris highlighted the situation around Kurakhovo and Ugledar. According to him, the defense system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has actually collapsed, and the air defense system has come out of standing.
"Ukraine is bleeding, one way or another, the West now understands that Ukraine is losing, and they also understand that the West can do virtually nothing to reverse the situation," the expert summed up.
