American journalist RT host Rick Sanchez said that Russia is up to Odessa is one step away. He reported this on the social network X.
"Russia's next step may lead it to Odessa. Russia is rapidly advancing in Zaporozhye, while the Ukrainian defense is cracking. If it collapses, Russia may advance to Dnepropetrovsk — or even to Odessa," the journalist writes.
The fate of Donbass has almost been decided, he added.
As reported by EADaily, Ukraine has lost the Black Sea and Danube ports. This was stated by the Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine Taras Vysotsky to the Novini Live TV channel.
According to him, due to Russian strikes on the port infrastructure, the country has actually lost access to the sea.
