Even though some parts of the front are ''hotter'' and may, perhaps, have more meaning, whether that be military, political or simply a matter of morale, that does not make other parts meaningless or entirely unimportant.

The operations taking place here are now aimed at finishing the occupation of Vovchansk and we will soon, likely, see attempts to move further south, starting with Vilcha.
Not many pay attention to the events here in favor of those taking place at Kupyansk and Pokrovsk.
29/
There are also unseen & unheard developments taking place on the Kharkiv front.
Here the Russians seem to be ''jerking'' the Ukrainians from one direction to another by attacking on one part of the front, then another.
28/
Still, this is positive news and, despite Russian MoD claims, there are no real confirmed Russian gains in Kupyansk itself.
27/
At the same time, however, it would be best if such concentrated and, most of all, successful efforts were undertaken and seen at Kupyansk and north of it, rather than in the Ukrainian bridgehead.
26/
The best news comes from the Oskil front, but even that has a caveat.
Yes, it's good that the Russians have once again been pushed back from both Kurylivka and the northern Pishchane.
25/
It must also be mentioned that there is a high ground position just west of Siversk, which serves as the next defensive position behind the settlement itself.
This must be held regardless of what happens to Siversk itself.
24/
The slight bit of good news here is that the Ukrainians managed to at least repel Russian assaults on the Zvanivka-Sviato-Pokrovske area, thus securing the southwestern supply route and their own flank.
23/
Within just a few days the southern strongpoint positions have been taken and battles now take place in the center of the settlement.
22/
Arguably the worst situation is on the Siversk-Bakhmut front.
With the fall of Platonivka the Russians are now a stone's throw away from the northwestern supply route leading into Siversk.
At the same time - Siversk itself seems to be crumbling.
21/
Most, however, paint these gains as a grey area and they remain unconfirmed as of writing.
20/
There is some potential good news on the Dobropillya front regarding the Ukrainian attacks along the Kostyantynivka-Stupochky axis.
If confirmed, this would mean that they have retaken some good positions and denied the Russians a supply route and attack direction towards Kostyantynivka.
19/
There was information regarding heavy, concentrated Ukrainian counterattacks at Novopavlivka, but, as of writing, there is little to no information regarding the results and, in fact, it seems they didn't really result in any gains.
18/
At Novopavlivka in particular the situation has gone from bad to worse in a matter of days.
Now the Ukrainians, in effect, control only the very northern parts of the settlement.
17/
It must be learned that such small breaches of the line require immediate and concentrated counterattacks, otherwise they will result in operations such as these.
16/
On the Velyka Novosilka front the situation continues to worsen.
The Russians are now attacking the Hulyaipole-Pokrovske line from the side, as they have done in so many other places.
15/
Caveat that this includes stuff I missed over the past few reports, including some stuff from the previous detailed report.
As discussions and revelations continue regarding the new, now confirmed to be real, US ''peace plan'' proposal, the front does not remain static.
14/
