Based on Russian sources and some Ukrainian sources, the Russian troops in Lyman Yampil area are in danger of being encircled, as Ukrainian troops have pushed North of them, and also S/D river to the East. Rumors are the Russians pulled out some troops, but left some to fight to the death. We will see what happens, but Ukrainians have been taking a lot of ground recently around where the Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Luhansk oblasts all intersect.

Ultimately I think the goal is Svatove, then I think Starobil's'k. The Oskil river proved to be a stopping point for the Ukrainian offensive before, and a good point to hold defensively for Russia, but now it seems Russians defensive lines have broken, and Ukraine is on the initiative again. Hopefully more success to come!
