American analysts have declared a split in the pro-Russian forces fighting in Ukraine.

This is reported by Censor.NET with reference to data from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

According to available information, the so-called "LPR" militias refused to continue fighting in the Donetsk region and complained about the exhausting pace of the offensive outside the Luhansk region.

Key conclusions of the institute's analysts:

  • The video, in which servicemen of the so-called "LPR" refuse to fight in the Donetsk region, shows a split between the pro-Russian forces.
  • Russian forces launched several limited ground assaults northwest of Sloviansk.
  • The occupiers conducted numerous offensive operations to the east and southeast of Siversk and the northeast and southeast of Bakhmut.
  • The invaders continued to conduct offensive actions to the northwest, west, and southwest of Donetsk.
  • Russian troops launched a limited ground assault north of Kharkiv.
  • Russian and Ukrainian troops continued to exchange accusations of shelling the Zaporizhzhia NPP.
  • The authorities of St. Petersburg officially denied calling local men to the military commissariat to discuss contract service.
  • The Russian occupation authorities continued preparations for the integration of the occupied territories of Ukraine into Russia.
