Russian Army Attacks More but Advances Less in Ukraine (legrandcontinent.eu)

• Russian territorial gains fell 12% to 141 km² in April.
• Ukrainian infrastructure strikes reduce Russian fuel use by 15–20%.
• Proposed May 9 ceasefire likely to allow troop redeployment.

"According to Deep State analysts, Russian forces advanced only 141 km² in April, down 12% from March and 20% year-on-year, despite conducting 5,100 assaults (2.2% more than March). The spring offensive appears stalled. Ukrainian strikes on fuel depots, refineries, and command centers have forced some Russian units to cut fuel consumption by 15–20%. A proposed ceasefire for May 9 is seen as a tactic to regroup troops in Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia."
