Russia Ukraine War: Russia is planning a big attack on Donbas, says America

Russia has reportedly written the troops off as 'non-combat losses' as it begins to pivot its war effort to focus on fighting in the Donbas region of east Ukraine having failed to encircle Kyiv in the first six weeks of the war.

The sabotage is the latest in a campaign of civilian warfare by Ukrainians seeking to defy Russian attempts to capture their cities.
