The military of Ukraine, which is waging its own counteroffensive, as well as our own people here in the Donbas, are attentively following the remarkable developments in Russia.
The very long front line is only shifting by a few meters, a few villages here and there.
Everybody is waiting to see where and when the Ukrainians may commit the bulk of their newly trained forces, with their Western-supplies weapons.
There are potential new opportunities for the Ukrainians to exploit. There are questions about where the Wagner forces have withdrawn from.
Russian forces will no doubt have heard what’s been going on and will be demoralised. There might be in-fighting between rival units in the days to come, depending on what sort of aftershocks there are back in Russia following yesterday’s remarkable events.
Right now, as well as risks of an escalation from Russia, Ukraine will be searching for opportunities from the instability across the border.
