🇺🇦🇷🇺 Could Ukraine actually take back the land Russia seized at the start of the war?
As crazy as that might sound to a lot of people right now, it is still a fair question.
While Russian forces tighten the noose around Sloviansk and Kramatorsk, the last major Ukrainian fortress cities in Donetsk, a quieter issue is gaining weight: if Kyiv can stabilize or reverse the current pressure, is a genuine recovery of earlier lost territory still possible?
Those 2 cities have been fortified for years.
Roads, rail lines, command posts and ammunition depots all run through them.
Russian units are now within a few kilometers and already hitting them with heavy glide bombs and drones.
If they fall, Moscow would finish its formal claim on Donetsk and gain a clearer path into the flatter ground that leads west.
That would be a heavy military and political blow, and yet the wider front is not one-directional.
Ukraine’s 2026 counteroffensive has already produced net territorial gains in parts of the east and south for the first time in years.
Manpower shortages, logistics strain and the sheer depth of Russian defensive lines still make a large-scale reconquest of 2022 losses extremely difficult.
But the fact that Ukrainian forces are again taking ground in some sectors shows the war has not settled into pure attrition.
The battle for Sloviansk and Kramatorsk will decide whether Ukraine can keep any meaningful foothold in Donetsk.
What happens after that will decide whether the early Russian gains remain permanent or become negotiable again.

U.S. intelligence now assesses that Vladimir Putin could test NATO’s resolve with a limited attack on a member state within the next several years, marking a shift from earlier assessments that Russia would avoid provoking the alliance while the war in Ukraine continued.
According to The Wall Street Journal, U.S. intelligence believes potential scenarios range from cyberattacks and hybrid operations using unmarked forces to a limited land incursion, with the risk increasing between now and 2029. Officials reportedly assess Putin may be more willing to take risks as Russia faces mounting pressure from Ukrainian strikes, slowing battlefield gains, and domestic expectations for victory.
The report also ties the assessment to growing concerns over U.S. munitions stockpiles. Officials cited shortages of key weapons, including Patriot interceptors, THAAD interceptors, Stingers, Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM), and ATACMS, following years of aid to Ukraine and heavy expenditure during Operation Epic Fury against Iran. The Pentagon and White House dispute those concerns, with Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell calling reports of shortages “false” and the White House maintaining the U.S. has sufficient munitions to meet all strategic objectives.
