Estonia’s public broadcaster reports some observations made by Col. Margo Grosberg, commander of the Estonian Defense Forces (EDF) Intelligence Center:^1
>Ukrainian troops have reached the so-called “Surovikin defensive line” and have broken through it in at least one place, reaching the western side of Verbove, the colonel said.
>It is there that the fighting has been most intense, Grosberg said, adding that Russia’s difficulties can also be seen by the fact that they have been forced to bring in units from elsewhere.
>The colonel pointed to the example of units from the Pskov Airborne Division, which were brought out from near Bakhmut, while additional units have also been taken from Lyman.
>”This action demonstrates quite a high-level of risk-taking by Russia, which shows that its reserves are limited, there’s not much left,” Grosberg said.
>Ukraine’s military leaders have also said that their success on the battlefield has been greatly helped by improvements in their artillery capabilities.
>According to Grosberg, Ukraine’s artillery is equal or even better than Russia’s.

The artillery ammunition supply coming from UA its gradually making the change here, UA slowly is able to supply the front and slowly producing more and more, this helps to keep smashing the orcs positions with no rest, this will change the front in the months to come, those orcs are going to receive a constant rain of bombs in the weeks to come.
