.The battle for Donbas: ‘the real test of this war’.It began with heavy shelling overnight that levelled three-storey residential blocks, hit the town’s nursing home and left four-foot deep craters in the road. Then the heavy armour rolled in. Dozens of Russian tanks, self-propelled guns and armoured personnel carriers advanced on Kreminna from three directions, as residents attempted to flee. After attempting to hold the town over the course of last weekend, Ukrainian troops retreated last Monday. The small town of less than 20,000 people in eastern Ukraine is no standout victory for the Russian army, which two months ago launched an invasion aimed at capturing Kyiv and toppling the country’s pro-western government in a matter of days.
俄羅斯調兵遣將火述移動前往頓巴斯支援作戰俄羅斯已經集結20000人左右.
國際戰略專家毫不諱言指出烏克蘭與俄羅斯的戰爭,就是另類的美國與俄羅斯的.戰爭,美國援助烏克蘭的各式各樣軍事武器是從未有過的.其次是動用軍事衛星監測戰場,照相繪成最新戰場佈署圖,分析研究指示烏克蘭,的軍隊作戰方案,因此烏克蘭東部地區頓巴斯的大決戰,為關鍵性質的戰役.
Standing in Russia’s way are the troops of the Joint Forces Operation (JFO), some of Ukraine’s best trained and most battle-hardened soldiers, who have been dug into defensive positions for much of the past eight years. Around 40,000 troops were stationed there before the conflict exploded in February, about a quarter of the Ukrainian army, and they will have since been reinforced.
This undoubtedly indicates a large offensive operation the modern Russian military has never had, and to which it never prepared, according to analysts studying the Russian military.According to the basics of the science of war, an offending party should enjoy a threefold superiority over enemy manpower to reasonably expect success.
Based on the known data about how much of the military power Russia made available for the invasion of Ukraine, the Russian military and collaborationist militant forces in Donbas do not have this advantage, although they would probably be able to gain the upper hand at key points. Moreover, the ongoing fierce Ukrainian defense of Mariupol, which has gone on for more than 50 days, has also prevented nearly 10,000 Russian troops (nearly a dozen BTGs) from being deployed to Donbas. Russia, in its turn, will have to deal with heavily fortified Ukrainian defenses and cities that were prepared for a long and exhausting war.
The key metropolitan areas of the Ukrainian-controlled part of Donbas, such as Slovyansk-Kramatorsk, Sievierodonetsk-Lysychansk, Avdiivka, or Kurakhove, have been turned into strong fortresses that will be hard to get at.
2022 full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine: 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Eastern Ukraine offensive, and Battle of Donbas (2022)
On 24 February 2022, Russia launched a new, full-scale invasion of Ukraine.] The DPR and LPR joined the offensive; the separatists stated that an operation to capture the entirety of Donetsk Oblast and Luhansk Oblast had begun.[] By 25 March 2022, Russian forces claimed control over 93 percent of Luhansk oblast and 54 percent of Donetsk oblast.[ Having encountered heavy resistance to its operations in other parts of Ukraine, Russia announced on the same day that it would shift its focus to the complete "liberation" of the Donbas.[]
.A railway station in Kramatorsk was hit by a Russian rocket strike on 7 April, killing at least 30 people and wounding at least 100 others.[ Pavlo Kyrylenko, the governor of the Donetsk region, said thousands of people had been at the station at the time the 2 rockets struck. Kyrylenko published a photograph online showing several bodies on the ground beside piles of suitcases and other luggage. Armed police wearing flak jackets were also visible. Another photo showed rescue services tackling what appeared to be a fire, with a pall of grey smoke rising into the air. However, these photos could not be immediately verified.[ The Russian Ministry of Defence denied the attack and said in a statement, "All statements by representatives of the Kyiv nationalist regime about the rocket attack allegedly carried out by Russia on April 8 at the railway station in the city of Kramatorsk are a provocation and are absolutely untrue.".

2樓. red square 1232022/05/25 10:24俄羅斯國防部搬出2S5風信子152公釐自走砲,鎖定烏軍陣地攻擊,宣稱摧毀了美國軍援的「抗俄大殺器」,M777榴彈砲，,時對烏東發動新攻勢。「高精準空基導彈擊中了4個指揮所,一處位於頓內次克人民共和國,巴克馬特的北方特遣部隊通信中心,還有48個人力和軍事裝備集中區。」
曾跟烏軍奮戰的前美國特種部隊士兵描述戰場當時迪情況,砲聲不斷逼近士兵們拔腿狂奔,逃到安全避難處。美國志願兵Kevin：「人們一直在說噢,你這麼做是為了民主,真的不是你知道這是善與惡對抗,我一直不明白」後來走到一處,當時這些外國志願軍避難的民宅,幾乎被俄軍大砲狠狠摧毀。
美國志願兵Kevin：「這是地獄之家,當時是非常痛苦的，四天睡眠很少真的,重型火砲俄軍的重型步兵出現。」這群由英美志願士兵組成的作戰小組,也想置烏軍於死地,美國志願兵回想當時的戰鬥,根本噩夢一場,對於烏克蘭人來說,這90天也留下揮之不去的創傷陰影。

俄軍集中兵力於烏東頓巴斯地區（Donbas）以來,烏克蘭軍隊以其最快的速度把俄軍趕出第二大城哈爾科夫（Kharkiv）周邊。一度遭俄軍猛攻的哈爾科夫,已至少兩周沒聽到砲聲。烏克蘭現在控制領土已延伸到東部40公里處的北頓內次河（Siverskyi Donets River）。不過哈爾科夫北部村莊仍持續遭到俄軍轟炸。
