It’s sounding as if Ukrainian President Zelensky’s recently revealed, top-secret plan for “victory over Russia” was not only poorly received among his Western allies, but perhaps unfortunately timed as well. While Zelensky was making his case for bigger and better weapons with the ability to strike far inside Russia’s borders, Putin’s forces in the eastern Donbas Oblast retook the key town of Vuhledar, the site of some of the most intense fighting seen on the eastern front. The Ukrainian forces had largely been routed from the area previously but had continued to hold on despite significant losses in troops and artillery. Last night, however, the Russian flag was raised above the town’s center and the Ukrainian commanders on the ground were forced to admit that they had pulled back to avoid being encircled and having their remaining troops being either captured or killed.
