PMC Wagner filmed a video of how a prisoner Yevgeny Nuzhin, who defected to the side of Ukraine, is being killed. He was kidnapped from Kyiv and killed in the basement. Russia's actions are being compared to ISIS.
Before Kharkiv offensive length of the frontline (without dnepro river) was 760 km.
After the retreat from Kherson frontline lengh is about 440 km.
New line will be much easier to defend for both sides. I dont expect any serious changes anymore.
